Light gold color. Creamy aromas of vanilla caramel, egg nog, cream puff, condensed milk, and fresh cut grass with a velvety, crisp, off-dry light-to-medium body and a smooth, engaging, medium-long sweet baking spice, anise biscotti, and creme brulee finish. A decadent Irish Single Grain Whiskey that offers layers of creamy, custardy flavors; an excellent nightcap.
