The nose has a buttery, creamy character, reminding me of steel cut oatmeal with a dollop of salted butter. Whiskey for breakfast? In the glass, notes of toasted pecan, graham cracker, and even a peculiar touch of pineapple mingle together, while a hint of sherry gives the liquid a sweet tinge on the palate. All ends with a medium-long finish fading into a dry and slightly tannic note. Overall, this is a well made whiskey that holds its own against some of the venerable brands from the Emerald Isle.

Little to no flavor, overwhelming taste of alcohol that lingers for far too long. Especially when compared to other Irish whiskeys such as Quiet Man or Writers Tears it falls short of being interesting
Aroma: little earthy and medicinal, otherwise not kuch there Palate: smooth and buttery with hints of agave. Finishes smooth and oaky. Nothing special
Matured in bourbon casks and blended with a touch of sherry finished malt to give a rounded toasted finish.
Creamy and toasty. Vanilla, oak, caramel. Super smooth, dangerously so. Session whiskey for sure!
Mouthfeel is nice and heavy
