I must give the Sherry cask a go again. I thought I'd love it but I must admit it did not appeal to me the first time around.

Any indication on price???

The new one for the Celtic Whiskey Shop is 100 euro, Adrian. The sherry finish is 70 euro, I think.

I must be frank and say that 100Euro is scandalous for the single cask. Cooley really need to revise their pricing in Ireland. There are just too many single casks flying around and I could easily get one from Germany/holland.belgium or even the UK for much much less. However I'd like to be able to support Ally but it is hard with such pricing and I know Ally is pushing for better deals too.

Irish whiskey is pricing itself out of the market I can pop into ally and get a 18yo Laphroaig or 18yo Bowmore for less too. It just does not add up.

Come on Cooley and the rest get your act together.

yes, but keep it in the mind, it is a small batch and won't be around forever, and maybe not for that price
