2023 Writers’ Tears Cask Strength Irish Whiskey Debuts

Walsh Whiskey recently released the 13th edition of their Writers’ Tears Cask Strength Whiskey.

A statement from Walsh notes that this cask strength whiskey is a blend of triple-distilled, aged single pot still and single malt whiskey, natural non-chill filtered and aged in American oak bourbon barrels.

The 2023 edition clocks in at 54.8% ABV and each bottle is individually numbered and carries the signature of Writers’ Tears creator, Bernard Walsh.

We take great pride in commending this full-bodied, flavorsome release to whiskey drinkers the world over.”
