Tasting notes
A stone’s throw from one of the oldest lighthouses in the world lies Martin Foley’s barley farm. The site on the southernmost coast is the last stop before the Atlantic Ocean. Propino barley grown in clay/loam soils is exposed to the most extreme maritime conditions. Barley from Foley’s 2015 harvest is stored, malted and distilled separately before being matured for three years and seven months in the highest quality first-fill and virgin American and French oak casks.
