Velvet Cap, is a blended Irish whiskey from the Blackwater Distillery. After the whiskey was blended, it was matured again in Bourbon, Rye/Stout and Port wine casks. The Master Distiller John Wilcox started to fill Stout into rye casks, then rye again, then Stout again. The first batch of Velvet Cap Irish Whiskey is limited to 6000 bottles. Velvet Cap was the whiskey of local merchants until the 1960s, bottled in Dungarven in Waterford County.
