Product Overview
The Legendary Silkie is the first release of Sliabh Liag Distillers who have set out to reclaim the nearly lost distilling heritage of Donegal County in Northwest Ireland. Silkie is not chill filtered allowing the soft buttery mouthfeel to be evident, creating a character as rich as the mythical tales that inspired it.
