Muja combines three continents in one new Irish whiskey

The blended Irish whiskey is made up of 90% single grain whiskey and 10% single malt whiskey. Each whiskey is 5 years old and triple-distilled for a smooth character.
The aging of the blended whiskey took place in a mix of diverse barrels: ex-bourbon, tequila, and oloroso sherry barrels. According to the whiskey maker, this results in a unique, deep, and complex flavor.

The new whiskey has the following flavor profile:
- Nose: Notes of vanilla, caramel, dried fruit, honey, warming spices, and a subtle spiciness.
- Palate: A full, smooth, and balanced character with sweet and spicy influences.

A bottle to savor
The first Muja whiskey was already delivered in a stylish diamond-shaped bottle. The same is true for this whiskey release, though the bottle has been somewhat modified. The concrete base is black and the glass of the bottle has a black color as well.
From the whiskey maker's perspective, this is meant as a nod to the Irish landscape with cliffs and mountains. For the drinker, it will mainly represent an incredibly luxurious display on the shelf.

The new Irish whiskey is being released worldwide. Currently, the bottle has not yet appeared online, but this should change soon. Additionally, the price per bottle has not yet been announced.

- Hi Yvonne, Thank you for your response and for sharing the video. Unfortunately, the evidence you referred to consists only of two people talking about the whisky, without any explanation or identification. We have not spoken to the individuals in the video ourselves, nor can we verify who they are. We describe it as a Chinese whisky because it is released by a Chinese distillery. As you mentioned, the distillery has chosen to label the product as “pure malt” instead of “Chinese whisky.” Based on that, we do not believe they are doing anything illegal.M0nkey16-11-2025
