Raise a Dram with Athrú Whiskey This Father’s Day
To celebrate Father’s Day this year, Lough Gill Distillery is delighted to announce a unique online single malt tasting and virtual distillery tour on Thursday June 24th at 7.30pm.
For those deserving Dads, a ticket to this premium online tasting event makes for a unique gift this June as this will be the first tasting event to include Athrú’s recently released single cask bottlings.
Founder David Raethorne and Head Distiller Ollie Alcorn of Lough Gill Distillery will be on hand to share single malt whiskey in its purest form - straight from the cask.
Commenting on the upcoming event, David Raethorne said: “At Athrú, we have one singular obsession; to create Ireland’s most beautiful single malt whiskey. We are delighted to share the first three Athrú single cask bottlings for this special tasting event. The three single cask whiskeys have been selected from the warehouse by our Head Distiller Ollie Alcorn who has overseen the entire bottling process from start to finish to make sure every bottle is perfect. We look forward to sharing and tasting these superb distinct whiskeys selected by different age and cask finish.”
Tickets for the online event include a tasting pack of four 40ml bottles, featuring samples from single casks including a 6-year Oloroso, 16-year Pedro Ximenez Sherry Barrel, 16 Year Tokaji Sweet Wine Barrel plus a surprise cask sample. With the release of Athrú single cask bottlings, buyers can taste whiskey in its purest form, direct from the cask.
Athrú’s Keschorran and Knocknarea single malt whiskeys were recently awarded the ‘Consumer Choice Award’ at the highly coveted SIP Awards, the international spirits competition.
This Father’s Day, no matter where you are or when you celebrate it, it’s time to honour those paternal bonds and the influence of fathers in society. Whichever way you choose to say thank you this year, there is really no better way of showing Dad you care than by spending time with him.
And even better if it’s over a dram of Athrú whiskey.
Athrú Whiskey Online Tasting Event Tickets, priced €48, are now on sale. The event will be hosted on Zoom and single malt samples and access details will be posted out to attendees seven days in advance.
