The KASC Project [L.L.] offers a lighter, more versatile take on the groundbreaking Hybrid Cask™ concept. As a blended Irish whiskey crafted for a softer, more mixable profile, [L.L.] serves as the approachable counterpart to the bold, full-bodied [B] release — the world’s first Hybrid Cask™ Irish whiskey. Unlike its siblings, [L.L.] is not fully matured in Kinahan’s bespoke hybrid casks. Instead, it draws just enough influence to maintain the essence and distinctive character of [B], while delivering a smoother experience designed for broader appeal and mixability.

What is the Hybrid Cask™?
The KASC Project isn’t just whiskey — it’s a radical reinvention of how whiskey flavour is born. At its heart lies a bold experiment: harnessing the terroir of wood itself to craft flavour from the cask up. Each expression is matured in hand-built hybrid casks, uniquely constructed from five distinct wood types — Portuguese Oak, American Oak, French Oak, Hungarian Oak, and Chestnut. Every tree tells a story. Every wood adds a layer. The result? A whiskey of rare complexity and depth, where flavours collide and evolve — spice meets sweetness, richness meets restraint.

Swansea became known as Copperopolis from 1720, when 50% of the world’s copper and 90% of the UK’s copper was smelted in the area. Penderyn’s new distillery is now located in the powerhouse of the former copperworks building. This is #12 in the "Icons of Wales" series, bottlings celebrating a significant person, milestone or event from Wales.
