A superb 10 year old Irish single malt whiskey and winner of Best Irish Single Malt Whiskey at the 2007 World Whiskies Awards. Wonderfully fruit-forward, with a good helping of vanilla and warming oaky spices in support.
Cooked banana and tropical fruit.
Guava, cantaloupe melon, over-ripe white peach, vanilla and peels.
Floral, spicy finish.
Add a drop of water and it tastes just like nectarine chunks in low fat yoghurt!
Belfast. Nice and smooth. Kind of plain. Not really very different from some of the Powers releases. Good pricing though.
If I want "nectarine chunks in low fat yoghurt", that's exactly what I'll buy. Sounds like someone has allowed their imagination to run away! Super smooth, fruity on the palate, sweetish, with a short finish with gentle vanilla, and malty, woody notes and a hint of salted caramel. An excellent whiskey.
A beautiful Single Malt. I still have have half a bottle left from my one litre bottle. Bushmills has always been my favourite single malt. Let's see Bushmills supply one litre bottles.
Not to be pooh-poohed it is a decent 10 yo for the price. Not outstanding but it delivers as a 10 yo. Well balance in the flavours department mild sherry and vanilla toffee. A bit subdued but easy drinking. If you want excitement-look elsewhere.
1st time to try a Irish whiskey. Impressed. Very similar to Glenmorangie 18. Great price
