"Wicklow" Rare Blended Irish Whiskey
Category: Irish Blended Whiskey
Date Tasted:
8/2/2016

Bright gold color. Aromas and flavors of mocha, warm chocolate cereal, maple nut fudge, and green tobacco leaf with a satiny, bright, dry-yet-fruity full body and a warming, intricate, very long finish that presents notes of caramelized almonds and pecans, chocolate drizzled fruits, sweet spices, and cedar and minerals finish. A superbly flavorful and nuanced Irish blended whiskey for all applications.
