Production method
Production is carried out in Ireland at third‑party distilleries/facilities (the Great Northern Distillery is cited for some releases); selection, blending and bottling are overseen by the Dream Whisky team. Single malts and peated whiskeys are used depending on the expression; some technical sheets report distillation in copper pot stills and the combined use of pot still and column still for certain releases.
Distillation
Copper pot stills for the single malt expressions; sources also report the combined use of pot still and column still for some productions.
Ageing
Maturation in oak casks; some product sheets indicate a minimum aging of 3 years.
Producer history Matthew
Matthew was created as the first continuous range of the Dream Whisky project conceived by Federico Mazzieri and Marco Maltagliati. The project grew out of Dream Whisky's independent bottlings and evolved into a stable offering of Irish‑style whiskey, the result of selections and blends carried out by the founders in collaboration with Irish production partners.
Production philosophy
Strong focus on sensory evocation and raw material selection; a typical approach of an Italian bottler/brand seeking to combine respect for Irish tradition with an Italian taste sensibility in the choice of blends and casks.
Territory
Production: Ireland (third‑party facilities, in particular Great Northern Distillery according to sources). Brand, selection and management: Italy (Dream Whisky).
