Wood You Believe It – Incredible Cask Finishes

Navan Whiskey Festival is thrilled to welcome Peter Cooney from Boann Distillery for a tasting like no other...


Into the Cask Library

Peter will delve deep into Boann's private cask library to curate a truly unique collection of incredible whiskeys for this session. By pulling from some of the rarest, oldest, and most unusual cask finishes resting in their Boyne Valley warehouses, Peter will demonstrate why Boann remains at the absolute forefront of innovation in Irish whiskey today.

Liquid Rarely Available to the Public

We'll taste liquid rarely, if ever, available to the public—offering a look behind closed warehouse doors at experimental drams and unreleased profiles.

Throughout the tasting, we will explore how different wood species, char levels, and previous fills—from rare fortified wines to unique spirits—can completely transform a whiskey's flavour, character, and underlying complexity.

Challenge Your Taste Buds

So bring your curiosity and prepare to have your taste buds challenged like never before as we take a deep dive into the fascinating, unpredictable world of whiskey maturation.
