Dead Rabbit - Irish Whiskey is produced in the United States using a mash bill built around grains such as corn, rye, and malted barley. The mash is cooked and fermented before being distilled, often in copper column or pot stills.

Maturation takes place in new, charred American oak barrels, where seasonal temperature swings drive spirit deep into the wood, extracting color and complexity. Warehouse management and barrel selection are critical, with blenders assembling lots that best represent balance and structure.

The result is a whiskey shaped by grain, oak, and time, reflecting both traditional craft and rigorous quality control.

Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey is a blended Irish whiskey crafted in collaboration with the famous New York City bar, known for its bold yet approachable character. On the nose, it offers a vibrant and inviting bouquet of sweet caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak, intertwined with bright notes of orchard fruits like green apple and pear. A delicate spiciness, often reminiscent of cinnamon or nutmeg, and a hint of malty sweetness add complexity. The palate is exceptionally smooth and medium-bodied, delivering a balanced blend of sweet vanilla, creamy caramel, and ripe red berries. Underlying notes of black pepper, a touch of dark chocolate, and a gentle woody spice emerge, providing depth and a pleasant warmth. The texture is luscious and refined, leading to a medium-long, warming, and elegantly smooth finish that lingers with sweet spice, oak, and a pleasing malty sweetness.
This versatile Irish Whiskey is excellent for sipping neat, with a splash of water, or as a foundational spirit in a wide array of cocktails, particularly those that benefit from a robust yet smooth whiskey. For food pairings, its balanced and flavorful profile makes it a good companion for comforting and hearty dishes. It pairs beautifully with classic pub fare like shepherd's pie, bangers and mash, or a gourmet burger. Its sweetness also makes it a good match for desserts such as apple crisp, bread pudding, or a rich chocolate cake. For savory pairings, consider mild to medium-aged cheeses or even a platter of smoked meats and charcuterie. It's an ideal choice for a classic Irish Coffee, a sophisticated Whiskey Sour, or simply mixed with ginger ale for a refreshing highball.
