Category: Irish Single Pot Still Whiskey

Date Tasted:
Country: Ireland
Alcohol: 53.6%
Gold color. Aromas and flavors of ripe mango, dry candied mango and papaya, ginger candies, and cinnamon candies with mango sticky rice and extra coconut sauce with a round, vibrant, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, complex, very long finish with notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and five spice, spiced mangos, pineapple upside-down cake, and apple cinnamon custard. Fresh and dried spiced mango with waves of coconut and a menagerie of accompanying fruits and spices; if this doesn’t grab your attention then you aren’t paying attention to Whiskies.
