Light gold color. Confected, citrusy, floral, fruity aromas and flavors of pineapple, mint, banana, ginger, with muddled blueberry and raspberry, strawberry, lemon, and orange, and cherry blossom with an oily, bone-dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, subtle, medium-length finish that exhibits suggestions of dark chocolate covered salted caramel, strawberry-cherry nougat, and walnut. A scrumptious menagerie of fruited confections drizzled in vanilla and chocolate.

About
Irish Single Malt Whiskey
Single malt Irish whiskeys, like their Scottish cousins, are whiskies that are only made with malted barley. They are usually triple distilled through both column and pot stills, although there are a few exclusively pot-distilled brands.
