Serving & pairing

Smooth enough to enjoy neat, Irish whiskey also lifts a hot toddy or an Irish coffee. Pairs with soda bread, mild cheeses and roast chicken.

What is single pot still Irish whiskey?

A style made only in Ireland from a mash of malted and unmalted barley (historically to avoid a tax on malt), distilled in copper pot stills at a single distillery. The unmalted barley gives a distinctive spicy, creamy texture.

A treat

Japanese whisky I could actually pay for.

“I lined up three blends, saw the sizes and the prices, and picked the 700 ml I could afford. Spirit Hives did not hide the cost. No regrets.”
Ken A.Japanese blended whisky
Wishlist haul

Saved three, bought three.

“A month of adding bottles to the Spirit Hives wishlist, then I checked out the three I kept opening. Sherried Speyside, a rye, a Rioja. All three matched the page.”
Matej N.Three bottles
Rare find

The bottle my town does not stock.

“Spirit Hives had the small-batch bourbon I had only ever seen on holiday. I ordered it on a Tuesday and it was on the table for Sunday. That is why I came back.”
Marcus T.Small-batch bourbon
Birthday gift

Quick to order. Worth the wait.

“Checkout at Spirit Hives took a minute. The bottle itself took a little longer than a supermarket run. I ordered ahead for my brother's birthday and it arrived in time.”
Derek C.Ordered in advance
