Gold color. Aromas and flavors of blanched almond and sea spray, amontillado and a bite of jamon, brioche and marzipan, and dried apricot with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, intricate, medium-long finish with impressions of sun dried white grapes, orange blossom honey, cinnamon stick, and vanilla. A focused Whiskey with sweet and sunny flavors with hints of sea salt; would make a lovely pairing with oysters.

Irish Single Pot Still Whiskey is an in Irish Whiskey made at a single distillery from a mixed mash of malted barley and unmalted barley in a single pot still. It is made with a minimum of 30% malted and 30% unmalted barley, and it is the use of the unmalted barley as well as the production resulting from a single distillery in a single pot that helps give it a distinct spiciness knows as ‘pot still character’; Irish Single Pot Still is also the only style of whiskey exclusively made in Ireland.
