In addition to his Danny Boy Blend and Danny Boy 15yo, he has launched a 10 year old blend called Titanic (presumably supplied by Cooley also)

More details and picture here...

And a reference to a 5 year old bottling here also...

Welcome developments... hope they come to WhiskyLive next year now they have 4 bottlings..

Any word on what they intend to make? Malt? Pot Still? any other details?

Tried the 10YO in bittles bar in Belfast. Was really nice and strong orange flavour to it. Reminded me of the Sainsburys Den Leire. I would certainly buy a bottle of it. I should say that this was after a couple of pints of ale on a work Christmas do so my opinion might not be the best one to take.

Well if you enjoyed it after a few ales then I think it says something :thumbsup: Thanks for the heads up sounds like a good whiskey as I was wondering about it. And the Dun Leire gets very good reviews too.
