Very smooth Irish whiskey light floral nose with almost no taste and all finish (after taste) of sherry or oak light fruit vanilla rhubarb or strawberry very unique but needs a more flavourful first taste

Not a bad dram but despite abv runs hot. I couldn't even tell it was port finish until I read the details it could have been sherry it's that faint. Definitely wouldn't grab a bottle.
This one a little spicier than the rum finish and a lttle rougher, it has a good body and is enjoyable
Kvalitní, slad, ovoce. Ale není moje chuť
Hot spicy with wood of a bowling alley
Apricot sweet mellow butter
