The name Roe & Co goes back to George Roe, once a world-famous whiskey distiller who made a decisive contribution to the golden age of Irish whiskey in the 19th century. The George Roe & Co distillery was not only Ireland's largest whiskey exporter, but also the direct neighbour of the Guinness brewery, the other major player in Dublin's historic brewery and distillery district. Due to Prohibition in America and more favourable competition from Scotland, the traditional distillery was forced to close in 1926. The only relics of the historic site are St Patrick's Tower and the pear tree growing at its foot - both symbols that are incorporated at Roe & Co to tell the moving story of George Roe. Roe & Co Irish Whiskey consists of a combination of Irish malt and grain whiskeys hand-picked by master blender Caroline Martin - matured in bourbon barrels, not chill-filtered and bottled at 45% vol, which makes it an interesting example of a whiskey. The elegant blend has the typical smoothness of an Irish whiskey and at the same time has a surprising depth of flavour. The high proportion of first fill casks gives it a note of creamy vanilla, balanced by fruity nuances and light spice flavours.
