A quartet of casks (Bourbon, Sherry, Port, Madeira) provide a spice-cake-like sipper. The complex, drying palate opens with candied citrus peel and almond, warms up with hints of molasses, ginger and vanilla, and finishes with rounded toffee, cocoa and spice.

Product Description
Daniel E. Williams, our founder, perfected whiskeys of exceptional smoothness, quality and rich character, this very small batch Tullamore D.E.W. 18 Year Old Single Malt is crafted to perfection in carefully selected wood. It is slowly matured in bourbon oak barrels and then finished for another 6 months in Oloroso sherry, port, madeira and bourbon casks. The precise combination of wood and time results in a dark golden whiskey with a rich maltiness, soft fruity notes and longering sweetness. Tasting Notes Nose: Rich and oaky with deep malty notes, caramelised fruits and woody spice. Taste: Velvety smooth and mellow, vanilla oak notes intertwined with cinnamon, baked apple, toasted marshmallows and a buscuity sweetness. Finish: Rich and warming with a lingering malty sweetness.

The aroma opens with vibrant notes of orange cordial and sandalwood. The exuberant palate reveals tropical fruits entwined with orange cream, tobacco leaf and a whisper of smooth milk chocolate.
A malt-forward nose with hints of vanilla and oak. The palate is brimming with tropical fruit and warming spice with a long-lasting finish.
An attractive nose with notes of orange blossom, chocolate, stone fruit and vanilla cream. Juicy mango and grapefruit come through on the palate. The finish is slightly grassy.
Beautifully restrained nose with all the hallmarks for a delicious Irish single malt with unique quirks. Undertones of butterscotch and honey with peach and citrus delivered on an intriguing palate.
The nose starts with mocha, orange and marmalade, some bold wine and aged rancio notes. There are raisins and green walnut and polished mahogany furniture. All showing a nice long maturation. It is balanced with a very long finish.
Fresh clear apple juice at first, with elements of gorse and pear followed by light tropical fruits. … Full flavoured, unusual and bold yet showing great elegance and balance. Outstanding.
Grass cuttings, sweet pink bubble gum, mineral notes, wet slate, peach and some notes of heather. On the palate, there is a bucket-load of tropical fruits, skunk and apple sours. The finish is red apple and reduced strawberries.
There is an incredible sweetness to this, like raspberry macaroons, whipped cream and rhum. … The palate is equally as fruity, but also delicate with vanilla and cream soda. A medium length finish is where the real spices are hidden.
