188 cask ownership club
The Wild Atlantic Distillery is offering a limited number of 188 casks to reserve for private investors. The casks are a limited-edition unique offering, inspired by the Wild Atlantic Way.
The Whiskey is made and produced at Wild Atlantic Distillery using locally sourced premium ingredients. It is distilled in our handmade copper pot still using a combination of traditional and modern skills to produce an exceptional spirit that will become your Private Single Cask Whiskey. So, you can be certain of consistent, premium spirit in every cask.
We hand select and source the very best oak casks (with full traceability) to ensure the right type of maturation. Our New Make Spirit has the finest and most exiting cask finishes, full maturation in Bourbon, Sherry, Port, Wine and Rum casks.
Each cask will be named after a specific point along Irelands most spectacular coastal route. Casks will be labelled and bottled bearing the name of these points, a unique expression of Irelands Whiskey making traditions.

Selecting a whiskey cask
We have established relationships that enable us to source highly unique casks, and we now have a unique variety available. No two casks are truly the same, and we will work with you to create a tailor-made experience and find your perfect match.
Understandably costs will change depending on the cask you have selected and how much spirit it has been filled with, but we feel it’s important that you have some connection and input into this very important part of the maturation process.
This year we will continue offering extremely limited casks, which will only be available for a set period. If you’re after that perfect gift for someone, or that unique business rewarding cask to bottle for colleagues in the future, this is something worth looking out for.
Our core cask listing is available all year round, but some casks will be limited due to demand and popularity, so please fill out our enquiry form to find out more. Price start from £5000 (not including taxes, VAT, bottling, and warehousing costs).
Prices quoted per cask under bond. Prices quoted exclude Duty and VAT.
