Hinch’s 5-Year-Old Double Wood was awarded the title of 'World's Best Blended Irish Whiskey' and is known for its double wood maturation process.

In addition, Hinch’s collaboration with Whitewater Brewery, Craft & Casks Imperial Stout Finish, was honoured with the 'World's Best Blended Irish Whiskey Limited Release' award. This special edition whiskey marries the rich, malty flavours of stout with the nuanced character of Irish whiskey.
