The Hanson from J.J. Corry is a blended grain Irish whiskey which shows off wave upon wave of creamy vanilla, sweet fruit and subtle spice. It's built using three casks of grain whiskey from a selection of Irish distilleries, expertly blended and bottled up at 46% ABV. Impressive, approachable stuff.
Sponge cake and rum-raisin ice cream, with a good drizzle of chocolate sauce.
Fresh peach and pear, another hint of floral vanilla, a slow build of soft oak spices.
Chai latte, tropical fruit and honey.
My first dabble into a proper Irish Whiskey. What a great one at that! Very light in both nose and taste but has depth of flavour. A couple drops of water to get it down to nearer 40 abv really opens it up. Weirdly enough I really get ‘banana milkshake’ on the finish.
