that’s yours
alone.

Pull up a chair
A word before
you begin.
I’m Patrick. My brother and I started Flying Tumbler on the family farm at Larch Grove — a few fields under the Blackstairs, where our people have been for generations.
A cask is the most personal way in. You pick the spirit, choose the wood, and give it a name. We chalk it, mind it while it sleeps, and one day you come and take it home.
From a twentieth of a barrel up to a whole one — there’s no wrong way in. Only yours.
The idea
So, what is owning a cask?
You own a share of a single oak cask — from a twentieth up to a whole barrel — maturing in our bonded warehouse in Carlow. As it sleeps it pulls colour and flavour from the wood; a little goes to the angels; what’s left becomes your Flying Tumbler.
Three ways in
Pick the one
that fits you.
From a share of a barrel that’s already filling, right up to a cask built from scratch. No wrong answer.
A Share of a Cask
Join a barrel that’s filling right now — brand-new make, straight off the still, so you’re in from day one. Shares come in twentieths; two gets you going. One shared finish, bottled together with the flock.

Your Own Mini Cask
The middle ground. A fixed slice of a real cask, locked in on day one — then drawn off into its own private finishing cask. Your finish, your strength, your name on it.
All-in guide for a 5-year base — finishing cask, maturation, storage & bottling included. Older or premium bases land higher.
A Cask of Your Own
The open canvas. A whole barrel, built from scratch — a dedicated first-fill ex-bourbon cask that’s nobody’s but yours. Every choice on the table, right up to premium finishes. Nothing pooled, nothing fixed.
Build it your way
Five hundred ways
to make it yours.
One cask, four dials. Spin them until it tastes like you — the combinations run into the hundreds.
The wood library
The flavour lives
in the wood.
Bourbon oak is the backbone. The finishing cask is where you sign your name — each one carrying the flavour of a place on the map, from the Douro to the Caribbean.
Where it matures
Larch Grove,
Co. Carlow.
A bonded warehouse on the family farm, under the Blackstairs in Ireland’s sunny south-east — the same coordinates stamped on every bottle. New make is drawn from partner Irish distilleries and matured, patiently and quietly, entirely here. Paddy keeps an eye on things between flights.

The numbers
No small print.
Three simple stages.
At bottling: a €400 bottling fee & €5 a bottle, plus duty, VAT & shipping — all confirmed then. The builder is the live source of truth for every figure.
Not an investment — an experience
Come home to
your cask.
This isn’t a line on a spreadsheet or a promise of returns. It’s a real barrel, in a real warehouse, with your name on it — and an open door. Put your hand on your cask. Sample it maturing. Stay a while, walk up the hill, and from year three, join the whole flock for the gathering.
a piece of Ireland waits.
