Boann Marsala Cask Finish Irish Whiskey – A Sweet Twist on Triple Distilled Tradition
Aged with tradition, finished with innovation Boann Marsala Cask Finish Irish Whiskey is a triple-distilled masterpiece that pushes the boundaries of Irish whiskey with a luxurious touch of Italian flair. Finished in Marsala wine casks from Sicily, this elegant expression brings rich depth and a velvety sweetness that’s both unexpected and unforgettable.
The core is pure Irish craftsmanship: triple distillation ensures smoothness, while aging in ex-bourbon barrels lays a solid foundation of vanilla, honey, and malt.

It’s whiskey for those who crave both comfort and complexity.
