The Bridge 1859 marks 10th Anniversary with Whiskey release

The 10-year-old Irish Whiskey will only be available at The Bridge 1859
The Bridge 1859, located in Ballsbridge, Dublin, is celebrating its 10-year anniversary this week.
Known as a haven for rugby enthusiasts and a favourite local watering hole just a stone’s throw away from the RDS and Aviva Stadium, The Bridge 1859 has become a cherished part of the community within the past decade.
To mark this special milestone, the owners – Noel Anderson, Jamie Heaslip, Rob Kearney, Dave Kearney, and Sean O’Brien – have commissioned a unique and exclusive 10-year-old Irish Whiskey, available only at The Bridge 1859.
There will be only 300 individually numbered 700ml bottles available, alongside a limited release of 100ml cans.
The whiskey, produced in collaboration with Two Stacks Whiskey, is a blend of Single Malt and Single Grain whiskies distilled in early 2014 at the renowned Cooley Distillery in Co. Louth.
Following initial maturation in ex-bourbon casks, it underwent an additional finishing process in a First-Fill ex-Oloroso Sherry Hogshead from Jerez, Spain, overseen by Two Stacks Bonders and Blenders.
Bottled at 48.5% strength, the whiskey boasts a rich red hue. It delivers a complex nose of ripe orchard fruits, sticky fruit cake, vanilla, and oak.
Noel Anderson, owner, The Bridge 1859, said: “It’s been an incredible 10 years at The Bridge 1859, and we wanted to do something truly special to celebrate this milestone. This whiskey represents everything we love – quality, character, and a bit of Irish soul.”
