Midleton Dair Ghaelach - Grinsell's Wood Tree 9 (Virgin Irish Oak Collection) 70cl Whisky
Midleton Dair Ghaelach - Grinsell's Wood Tree 9 (Virgin Irish Oak Collection)
Irish Distillers' first ever virgin Irish oak (Dair Ghaelach in Gaelic) finished whiskey! Single pot still whiskeys that had matured for between 15 and 22 years in ex-bourbon casks were selected for this release and married together before being filled into the Irish oak hogsheads.
Sustainable oak was used for Dair Ghaelach, with trees felled in Grinsell's Wood within Ballaghtobin Estate back in 2010 being transported to north west Spain to be expertly quarter-sawn. After this they head over to Antonio Páez Lobato cooperage in Jerez down in the south. Here the staves dry for fifteen months before being turned into hogsheads and receiving a medium char.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Well aged bourbon matured pot still notes of vanilla, banana and pineapple work well with the Irish oak's contribution of darker woodland spice, cinnamon, coffee and redcurrant.
Palate
Spicy oak, fresh straw, plenty of vanilla fudge, pineapple wakamomo, a little cocoa sprinkled on caramelised apple. Rich allspice.
Finish
Very long and increasingly wood spice-driven.
