Working with Nature

Broadlough Whiskey is committed to Grain to Glass traceability, using barley grown on our estate, yeast, and the purest of spring water to distill our whiskey.

The result is a premium whiskey which is rich and deep in both flavour and “terroir”.

A Unique Ecosystem

The Wicklow Broadlough is a central element of the Murrough Wetlands Conservation Area, due to its surrounding salt marshes which host a wide range of protected wildlife species.

The Soil of the Estate

Grown on the rolling hills of our estate, surrounding the brackish lakes of Wicklow Broadlough, our barley crops are unique, owing to the mineral alluvium soil with its high organic material content, which is only found here.

A Cocoon for Growth

The coastal location of the Broadlough Estate brings a temperate climate, with each season flowing gently into the next, resulting in barley crops which have not been “shocked”. this makes our grains plump and tender, with greater consistency and stability of flavour.

The coastal air also provides the delicate briny notes of our whiskey, reminiscent of moreish pretzels, which are absorbed during maturation in our warehouse.
