Irish Whiskey

Nose A meeting of oloroso and crisp pot still character. Malty, too. Lovely fruitcake richness, though not as sweet as in recent years. Palate Very firm, oily, intense and mouthfilling. Finish A hint of spice counters an increasing oaky bitterness though the barley and sherry last to the very end. Soucre Jim Murray

Tullamore Dew is a distinctively smooth Irish whiskey; experts have described its flavour as "warm, sweet spices, pleasant maltiness with toasted wood hints and a creamy vanilla smoothness".

The first ever single pot still Irish whiskey finished in Bordeaux casks! The choice of Bordeaux wine is also significant - Ch. L?oville Barton is not only a highly-regarded grand cru Ch?teau, but one that takes it's name from the Irish 'Wine Geese' winemaker Thomas Barton. In fact, L?oville Barton is still run by his descendants to this day. This bottling is a celebration of shared Irish heritage.

Matured initially in a mixture of ex-Oloroso Sherry, fresh American oak and ex-bourbon barrels, this Green Spot whiskey is then finished in the ex-Ch?teau L?oville Barton Bordeaux wine casks for 12 to 24 months.

Nose: Wild raspberry, pot pourri, crab apple, honey and gingerbread.

Palate: Toffee, green apple, lemon peel, vanilla, redcurrant and warming spice.

Finish: Long and quite dry with cereal and plenty more spiciness!

The Tyrconnell 16 Year Old is the highly anticipated limited release expression that builds on the legacy of the original incarnation of The Tyrconnell?. This is the result of sixteen years spent in bourbon barrels, and the first general release of an aged expression of this magnitude. The nose evokes citrus with underlying notes of oak, then the palate reveals a light and approachable taste with green fruits. The finale is subtly sweet with notes of oak and a smooth lingering finish.

Nose: The immediate nose in this unique Irish Whiskey is how thick the aroma is.; This pot still Irish whiskey hints at being much more mature than it's 8 years, you might say this whiskey is an "old soul" thanks to the lovely dustiness and the breath of sherry.; There are subtitle hints of the bourbon wood floating through the nose, but it's masked by the clear vapor of menthol and malt.

Taste: Full bodied, sweet and rich from start to finish.; This is soon blended with a favorable spice, yet all this is balanced keeping Green Spot whiskey soft on the tongue while still punching the taste buds with the hard evidence of the pure pot still malt. If this sounds schizophrenic, it's not, it's just a very complex and complete Irish Whiskey. 

Finish: The finish on this whiskey is expectedly long, and malted, and you inhale you can't help but notice the sweet almost honey like feel mixed with a bourbon spice. the very last impression you are left with is the cooling menthol that was picked up in the nose. source - whiskeysofireland.com

Aged in three different wood types before bottling, Bushmills 16YO is a step up in terms of quality and complexity compared with their 10YO. A hint of forest fruits, black pepper and vanilla on the nose before a full, rich palate. This is an excellent after dinner dram - smooth and satisfying.

A beautiful pure pot still whiskey (or "single pot still" as it's now officially known). Redbreast 15 is a rich, thick, sweet, pungent whiskey with loads of flavour and complexity - really good stuff! 

Bushmills offers an exclusive Caviste Edition with this more intense Black Bush. The most malty blend in the range, the Black Bush has mainly aged in Sherry and Bourbon casks.

This unique recipe gives Black Bush rich, fruity notes and a strong intensity, balanced by a unique sweetness.

A wholly unique style within Irish Whiskey, pushing the boundaries of convention, at the intersect of where old meets new.
