Quite possibly the worst Irish whiskey I’ve ever had. On the nose it’s extremely ethanol heavy With a little vanilla, and shortbread cookie. The taste is pure ethanol then a little sweetness on the back end. I’m not sure if something happened in the past two years, but my bottle taste nothing like the other reviews. Stay far away from this bottle.
★★★½ Avent 2019 - 12/24. Comme j'avais hâte de déguster ce produit que j'ai acheté directement de la distillerie en Irlande cet été. Une odeur médicamenteuse nous rappelle discrètement l'hôpital, mais les saveurs de noisettes et d'épices viennent donner un peu de punch à ce produit ma foi sympathique!
Maybe I got a bad bottle, but this genuinely tastes and smells of plastic. Acetone and other unpleasant aromas. I’m supremely disappointed considering I only bought this because I saw that it was from the same region of Ireland that my family is from.
The most bland Irish I have tasted. The color is super light, and the flavor is almost sweet, almost complex, but ultimately does not deliver. There are many other Irish in this price range that would be worth your time.
not bad! smells a little astringent, but is smooth and caramel sweet on the tongue. little hints of shortbread. orange rind in the finish.
Very vanilla taste but the rubbing alcohol smell deters you from wanting a second glass. Overall good taste, just a strangely strong smell.
