This is enticingly sweet from the bourbon wood, with taffy candy, vanilla cream, and peeled orange. … Satellites of citrus around drying oak make the finish. Solid, composed, and decent.

Product Description
Jack Ryan Beggars Bush Haddington Road, Dublin. If addresses could address, what a tale this one could tell. For this is the address of one of the great public houses of Dublin. Beggars Bush, built in 1803 [the year Europe decided they had quite enough of Napoleon Bonaparte]. For over a hundred years now, Jack Ryan & Family have been proprietors of this wonderful watering hole. The family served their first customer just as Europe was considering another 'Great War'. And what customers they were. They were poets. They were ladies of the night. They were rebels with fire in their souls and guns on their arm. They were soldiers on tenterhooks, resided in the Barracks close by. Jack Ryan's customers lived life. And they knew their whiskeys. And Jack Ryan knew they knew. He served up a single malt that was as characterful as the times he lived in. One Hundred years later, we like to think of Jack Ryan Beggars Bush Single Malt as a fitting reflection of those times that are etched in poetry, song and story. We invite you know, to enjoy 'a ball' of jack's finest. An Irish whiskey that's an original, for Jack Ryan Beggars Bush Single Malt is distilled and matured in ex-bourbon barrels to deliver a unique taste, a well balanced, smooth, sweet and fruity Palate with a long, malty, oak finish. Savour it. And you'll have some tale to tell. Savour it. And you'll have some tale to tell. Display Tubes/Boxes: Display boxes subject to availability.
