Light gold color. Creamy, floral, fruity aromas and flavors of honey drizzled red and green apples, sweet green jasmine tea, and lemon verbena with a round, dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, complex, medium-length finish conveying overtones of toffee apple candies, candied pecan, and banana. Delicious and smooth, this Irish Single Malt illustrates the finesse and ethereal flavors of great Irish Whiskey.
