It's the 7 year old expression from Ireland's Pearse Lyons! This blended whiskey was predominantly matured in bourbon barrels, though a smidge was matured in sherry casks for good measure. The distillery's very own single malt is in the mix, so there's a good helping of malty notes alongside dried fruit, spice and orchard fruit.
Honeyed malt, clove-studded orange and plump, sherried dried fruit, leading into resinous oak.
Biscuity, with white pepper, dried apple and spiced pear crumble with a dollop of vanilla custard.
Freshly baked pastries, with sultana, more clove and orchard fruit.

Some dried fruit notes on the nose. Creamy mouth feel. Good length on the finish. Nicely done.
