Product Description

A fine blend of Irish Malt and Irish grain whiskey, gently rested in Select Bourbon Casks. These casks have been used by only the best distilleries and then hand selected and shipped to Ireland. These add great depth and character to our whiskey and bring out beautiful overtones of vanilla sweetness with the quality of the Irish in the background... Slainte!

What critics and judges wrote

IWSC judges · Silver · 2025
The aroma reveals earthy pineapple and pear, intertwined with a pinch of salt. The rounded palate delights with juicy tropical fruits, creamy vanilla, and a whisper of wood spice.

Fruity nose with fudge, spices, breadcrumbs, florals, and fruits, salty balanced palate with fudge, toffee, and rich fruit transitions to a complete umami driven finish.
Silver · 92 pts2023iwsc.net ↗
Juicy comice pear and red apple before the spicy oak, oats and a shy cinnamon scent emerge; smooth on the palate with gentle nuttiness and a delightful breadth of flavours.
Bronze2022iwsc.net ↗
Vanilla, baking spices and vegetal notes combine with pear on the palate and finish spicy.
Falstaff · November 2023
In addition to citrus zest and vanilla, there are savoury notes of pepper on the nose. Surprisingly sweet vanilla on the palate initially, peppery components become clear on the mid-palate. Sweet pipe tobacco on the finish.

Wine Enthusiast · Kara Newman · March 2023
What's in the bottle is a five-year-old blended whiskey, showing honey and coconut aromas. The palate offers golden raisin, red apple and vanilla, leading into a clove and pepper finish punctuated by a final cigar smoke exhale.

Whisky Advocate · Jonny McCormick · 2020
Aromas of honey, vanilla extract, dried banana, and clove, with green herbal notes of parsley stems and kale. … Worth getting to know this whiskey well to appreciate its full potential.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
