Hey Daniel, the rules for Single Pot Still whiskey. A minimum of 30% of unmalted and malted barley like you said, but the overall mash bill must be 95% barley. They allow 5% for an accent grain. All Midleton pot still whiskey is 100% barley, but for other producers it differs. Drumshanbo, for example, use 5% oats to add a creaminess and I'm sure the new Blackwater distillery uses rye in their mashbill, but 95% barley all the way. Cheers Daniel.

I was just about to comment the same thing. Though I will add that some distilleries are petitioning the Irish government to change to rules and allow a larger percentage of grains other than barley. If this happens, it will bring Irish pot still whiskey more in line with the way it was historically.

I suspect a lot of the smaller guys are focused on single malt because single pot still is pretty dominated by Irish distillers - redbreast, spot and powers coming out of the same small town in cork is a lot to compete against. Still, amazing to see the category expand and Teeling was a big trailblazer here.

It's a bit early in the day for me to be hitting the booze, but I think this will be my evening booze today. I am looking forward to it. I liked this style of whiskey the very first time I tried it, and I always keep a few different bottles around. I'm glad it wasn't abandoned during those dark days when it wasn't popular.

Rumour, shmoumer! It's our story and we're sticking to it 😂! Great vid Daniel. Although we (Irish) are known for our Pot Still whiskey...some great examples of it come out of Australia and the U.S. Inchdarnie distillery have recently put one down too but, given Scotland's laws against using enzymes, their high percentage of malted barley in the mash may mean it doesn't result in your typical SPS feel.
@TheBarleyLads

Irish Single Pot Still mash bills had to be at least 30% malted, 30% unmalted, and UP TO 5% other grains. Meaning 95% is still barley in some form. People like Fionnan O'Connor are trying to get more traditional/historical mash bills approved with up to 30% other grains, but that has yet to be approved.

@@B1gC4st I didn't have that sort of thing in mind 🙂, but it's another aspect of the point. When people in what's now the United States found that rye grew better in the north, they made rye whiskey instead of sticking with barley. When people moved South after the Whisky Rebellion and found themselves in corn country, they made whisky with corn instead of insisting on barley. And they didn't confine themselves to single grain mash bills, but combined grains. In other words, they embarked on a uniquely *American* way of making whisky. And I just can't feature abandoning American whisky traditions in favor of importing the vocabulary and methods our forebears eschewed centuries ago because that vocabulary and those methods weren't suited to the situation here. I would never expect a Scottish distiller to speak of a fermenter instead of a "mash tun," or sprouted barley instead of "malted" barley, because that would be imposing Americanisms on a Scot. But equally we ought to retain our own vocabulary and methods, instead of trying to be ersatz Brits.

Great video as always! My whiskey club is doing an all Irish whiskey tasting next week. 🤙🏻 Question about the Single Pot Still mash requirements… you said “the remaining 40% can be a mixture of other grains”… I thought I read that other grains could only be up to 5% of the mash bill. Am I reading/understanding the legislation incorrectly and/or is this a recent change? Also, since “cask strength” came up… in the U.S. “barrel proof/cask strength” on a bottle means the spirit’s proof coming out of the barrel (or the average of a blend of barrels of course) is what’s in that bottle, but I recently heard from a couple of Scottish vendors that in Scotland “cask strength” just means it’s a higher proof than normal, there’s no set legislation and thus it doesn’t necessarily mean the proof of the bottle is what it was in the cask. Is this true and if so, is there any terminology legislation for this in Ireland?
