Gold color. Aromas and flavors of vinyl and peanut shell, dark roasted honey malt, nutty, and marzipan and creme brulee with a medium-to-full body and a medium-to-long finish that exhibits overtones of under ripe pear, bleu cheese drizzled with honey, pecan, and blood orange and brown sugar. A fruit and malt-balanced sipper with light barrel flavors making for a no nonsense Irish Whiskey.

Blended Irish Whiskey is a blend of malt and grain whiskies that makes up a large majority of Irish Whiskey production. It can be blended with Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, allowing for any combination of the three to fall under the category. Any grains may be used, as well as it may be distilled in pot and/or column stills, and it may be made at a single distillery or multiple distilleries.
