Micil Long Walk is a blended Irish whiskey from Galway's Micil Distillery — a poitín-maker-turned-whiskey-producer named for the Ó Conghaile family's traditional spirit. The blend uses five components: 60% bourbon grain, 20% virgin oak grain, 10% port grain, 8% port double-distilled malt, and 2% peated malt.
The five-component recipe is unusually complex for a budget Irish blend. Each element contributes something different — bourbon sweetness, virgin oak spice, port berry fruit, malt depth, peated warmth — and the combination creates a whiskey with more layers than its modest price suggests.
Micil Long Walk is a well-assembled Irish blend from one of Galway's most characterful distilleries. The five-component complexity, the poitín heritage and the fair price create a whiskey that celebrates the wild west of Ireland. Named for Galway's iconic promenade, and every bit as atmospheric.
