On May 10, 1785, a hot air balloon crashed into the city and began a fire that destroyed over 100 homes, making Tullamore the site of the world's first known aviation disaster. Following the accident, the city adopted a phoenix (a phoenix is a mythological Greek bird that is reborn after it dies) rising from the ashes as its coat of arms, a symbol of its resilience and recovery.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nTullamore DEW Distillery was founded within 50 years of the accident, and is situated at the very site where the hot air balloon struck a smoking chimney, which started the fire.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nTullamore DEW Irish Whiskey is made from three different grains, including malted barley, unmalted barley and corn. Once the grains are harvested, they are milled and mashed with hot water before being fermented in wooden washbacks. During fermentation, the grains' sugars are converted into alcohol, creating a strong yet sour beer called wash. The wash is then triple distilled through three copper-pot stills: a wash still, a low wines still and a pot still. Through each distillation process, the alcohol content and flavors of the whiskey are intensified.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFollowing distillation, Tullamore DEW Trilogy Irish Whiskey is aged for 15 years in a combination of ex-bourbon, ex-Oloroso Sherry and special ex-rum casks, making this both the oldest whiskey ever released by Tullamore DEW and the first time the distillery has used rum casks in such a way. As a result, Tullamore DEW Trilogy has a rich aroma filled with tropical fruits, mixed nuts, tannins and oak. The palate transitions to flavors of chocolate fudge and whipped cream, and leads to an incredibly long and intense finish.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nTullamore DEW Trilogy Irish Whiskey shows the power of three in many ways — three generations of the Williams family, three types of Irish whiskey (malted barley, unmalted barley and grain), the distinctly Irish process of triple-distillation, the unique crafts of distillation, blending and maturation, and aging in three different types of casks.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPick up a powerful whiskey today!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Irish Whiskey\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrary to popular belief that Scots invented whisk(e)y, Irish whiskey was mentioned almost a century before its Scottish brother.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts origin comes from the perfume distilling monks who decided to tweak the recipe a bit, creating Irish whiskey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIrish whiskey doesn’t have a lot of rules and regulations to be considered “pure” and can be made with various grains and processes, as long as it is aged for at least three years in wooden casks and has a max ABV of 94.8%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’d like to check out our impressive selection of “\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/whiskey\/irish\/\"\u003eUisce Beatha\u003c\/a\u003e,” find your new favorite in the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/whiskey\/irish\/reviews\"\u003eBest reviewed Irish whiskeys\u003c\/a\u003e, and explore our treasury of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/rare-whiskey\/\"\u003erare \u0026amp; hard to find Irish whiskeys\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Caskers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51412149403861,"sku":null,"price":224.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/7810\/6581\/files\/tullamore-dew-15-year-old-trilogy-small-batch-irish-whiskey-1_2.jpg?v=1745581393","url":"https:\/\/www.swiglab.com\/products\/tullamore-d-e-w-15-year-old-trilogy-small-batch-irish-whiskey","provider":"SwigLab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
