Six18 Old Fashioned
A timeless cocktail with a Skellig Six18 character. Our Small Batch Irish Whiskey brings notes of vanilla, caramel and soft orchard fruit to the classic combination of sugar and aromatic bitters, while fresh orange oils add a bright citrus lift. The result is a smooth, warming Old Fashioned with a gentle Atlantic influence and a long, satisfying finish..

The Perfect Serve
For the best experience, use a single large ice cube. It chills the cocktail while slowing dilution, allowing the whiskey’s character to remain at the heart of the drink.
