The Missouri oak tends toward a slightly denser grain and different tannin and flavor compound profile than Appalachian-grown American oak. Ten months in virgin Missouri oak — a meaningful finishing period — allows the Ozark wood character to integrate with the sherry and bourbon cask foundation of the primary maturation, producing a pot still whiskey with a genuinely distinctive American oak character that the standard range doesn't offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Redbreast pot still fruit and spice character with the virgin Missouri oak adding new wood sweetness and spice\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sherry and bourbon maturation complexity underneath the Missouri oak's specific wood character — a distinctly different American oak profile than Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long with the pot still spice and virgin Missouri oak persistence\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Midleton Distillery, County Cork, Ireland\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Irish Single Pot Still Whiskey, American Oak Series\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaturation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sherry casks and ex-bourbon barrels\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 months in virgin Missouri oak — Ozark Forest sourced\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/irish-whiskey\"\u003eIrish whiskey at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How does Missouri oak differ from Kentucky oak?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Missouri Ozark Forest oak tends toward denser grain and a different tannin and flavor compound profile than Appalachian Kentucky American white oak.
