approaches Belfast International Airport the first thing I notice is how green the fields in Northern Ireland still are.\u00a0 Back in England everything is scorched various shades of yellow after a summer with extended periods of heat and a distinct lack of rain.\u00a0 It\u2019s early September in 2022 and, despite a warmer summer than usual, the barley harvest has yet to begin for a lot of farmers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I\u2019d been in touch with the folks at the Echlinville Distillery since they very kindly sent me a bottle of Dunville\u2019s Three Crowns Sherry Cask Finish for our St. Patrick\u2019s Day tasting back in March.\u00a0 I\u2019d mentioned to them that I\u2019d be in the country come September but, being the disorganized soul that I am, I\u2019d neglected to let them know exactly when I was coming until two weeks before I arrived.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-image align_center\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img

us on a tour of the grounds and the distillery.\u00a0 Echlinville isn\u2019t a town or village you can drive to, it\u2019s more of a historical area surrounding the Estate established by the Echlin family in the eighteenth century.\u00a0 The location of the distillery has personal significance because my grandparents lived for many years in the fishing village of Kircubbin a five-minute drive from the distillery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So off we set down the Ards Peninsula with plush green fields to our left (a nice change from the crispy yellow ones back in England) and a brooding Strangford Lough to our right.\u00a0 The first thing we notice, as we drive up to the gates of the distillery, are the waving fields of barley floating in the wind.\u00a0 Echlinville are Northern Ireland\u2019s first field to glass farm distillery.\u00a0 All the grain used in production at the distillery is grown and malted on the Ards Peninsula.\u00a0 For me, this is something to be appreciated in a world where most of the barley used for whisky production travels hundreds miles before it gets to see the inside of a fermentation tank.<\/span><span

data-contrast=\"auto\">At the top of the hill sits the Echlinville Manor House, a plush white mansion purchased by Shane Braniff in 2007 with the intention to build Northern Ireland\u2019s first new distillery in 125 years around it.\u00a0 As we make our way up the drive you can see a bustle of activity.\u00a0 It\u2019s the week before the grand opening of the brand new visitor experience and there\u2019s plenty of work to be done with coffee shops and tasting rooms being erected inside shipping containers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The centerpiece for the whole operation is a vast modern still house visible to the outside world through giant clear glass walls that run floor to ceiling.\u00a0 Inside sits the hybrid still set up showcasing a wash still and spirit still attached to a double column still that gets used depending on what\u2019s being produced that day.\u00a0 In the back is another, smaller hybrid still used to make gin, complete with pot, column and infusion box.\u00a0 The mezzanine level of the main still room is filled with tables and chairs so, if you wanted to, you could attend a formal dinner sat right in front these beautiful brass marvels.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Echlinville produce a veritable array of spirits with several gin and vodka labels as well as a rather tasty poitin that\u2019s well worth your time should you get the chance to sample.\u00a0 The distillery\u2019s main focus however is whiskey with the highly regarded Dunville\u2019s range taking precedence while the hugely anticipated Echlinville Whiskey Inaugural Batch waits patiently before release later on in 2023.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In fact, in a major achievement for the distillery, the Dunville\u2019s 21 year old Palo Cortado Cask 1197 took home the prestigious title of \u201cBest Whiskey\u201d at the Irish Whiskey Awards held in November 2022.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small\"><\/div><div

class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dunville\u2019s is an historic Belfast whiskey company that\u2019s been revived by Echlinville.\u00a0 The distillery release both blended and single malt whiskies under the label, usually after having spent time maturing in various different sherry casks.\u00a0 We tasted through the range with particular favourites being the chocolate, coffee and raisined 12-Year-Old Single Malt PX Cask and the Three Crowns Married Sherry Finish; a blended whiskey packed with delicious butterscotch and caramel notes.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">So what\u2019s new for Echlinville in 2023?\u00a0 Well, aside from the long awaited release of it\u2019s first distillery labelled release, the distillery continues to grow as a tourist destination offering not only tours of the distillery itself, but a series of walking trails through the woodlands and barley fields of the estate.\u00a0 If you\u2019re not able to make it across to the Ards Peninsula anytime soon, you can still taste a bit of Echlinville at the Oxford Wine Company with a 10% discount off all Irish whiskey in the build up to St. Patrick\u2019s Day 2023.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div
