Slane Irish Whiskey is made using whiskeys drawn from a trio of casks - virgin oak casks, seasoned casks (which previously contained Tennessee whiskey and bourbon) and Oloroso Sherry casks.
Nose: Sweet oak and toasted barley at first, with layers of caramel and ginger developing later on.
Palate: Victoria Sponge Cake with plenty of jam and cream in the middle. A touch of butterscotch.
Finish: More toasty notes linger on the finish.

fairly smooth with a dash of water. has just a touch of after fire which is concerning for longevity drinking. a good single malt rarely shows this.so some caramel, a little spice, a touch of sweet cake; madeira i think.. shortish finish then a gut burn kicks in.. not bad but its not going to get into my regular drinks

Beautifully smooth; complex flavours on sipping, and then a lovely, lingering after taste. Could tempt me away from Chivas Regal 13 year old.

This has got to be one of my favourite whiskies, this is the second bottle I have ordered and I'm sure it won't be the last. One of the best I've had recently and it's not a single malt.

Excellent whiskey. It's my go to Irish. Smooth all the way, no harshness. Warm and caramelly. It's great neat, but stands up to rocks if that's your preference.

disappointing i think they should amend the casks to; aluminium, plastic,pine .... young , overpriced, overstretching,

Reasonably priced & high caliber!

Smells of sweet buttery apples, cherries, plum and floral notes. Taste is butter forward, developing into cherry, apple, apple peel, flowery and wood end, a tiny bit bitter. Nice light aftertaste. Quite good

.. As there's not many Irish whiskeys out there that i've still yet to try, & being my favoured choice of tipple, its not often i stumble upon something completely new to me, so when i chanced upon a bottle or two at my local Asda recently priced @ £30 a bottle, damn, i just happened to have £30 left over after shopping, so that was that, my first ever unresearched, unplanned, unknown & now nervously bought- bottle. The result? This well balanced refined whiskey could easily compete with some that cost double this price in any blind tasting test.

Pairs well with a habano cigar or may pair well with any light cigar. The whiskey is very smooth, not complex.
11th September 2019
Easily the best tasting Irish whiskey on the market, I enjoy my whiskeys and I cannot get enough if it.. so smooth and easy to drink neat. This is a premium whiskey for a regular price..

Bought this for St. Patrick's day with low expectations because it's so cheap and I was very pleasantly surprised.I usually drink Scotch and haven't really explored the Irish whiskies much but so far this is my favorite. It's incredibly smooth with notes of raisins, cream, and toasted oak. I have Redbreast 12 right now as well which is very good but to me this is a little better and it's quite a bit cheaper. Definitely found my new go to Irish whisky here. Cheers! The Sugarbear

Such a nice surprise! It won’t be confused with the pricy drinks, but it’s a solid alternative to the “run of the mill “ ones.

My Dad has been drinking Irish whiskey and scotch whisky for over 40 years. He has tried them all from the cheap and cheerful to the extremely pricey. Took a punt on this since I had never heard of it and he said it the best he has ever tasted - high praise indeed! About to buy another three bottles for Xmas presents.

When you're ready to step up from the entry level/big brands (entry level Jameson or Bushmills) I highly recommend this. Splash a small bit of water on top, or drink it straight. Appreciate the different flavors and let this introductory sipping whiskey melt in your mouth. I can find this in my NH State (northeast U.S.) liquor store for under $30 generally (translates currently to ~24 Euros or ~22 Pounds).While I haven't tried more expensive whiskeys than this (say Powers, Green Spot or Redbreast), I admit I am tempted to just stay here as it is a great taste value.

Great value. I got a distinctive peaty taste reminiscent of some if the Islay malts.
16th March 2018
I love this! First Trippewood that has kept its promises.

Great expression of the Blended style. Sweet red fruits of grape & cherry with a wooded taste mixed in and some shortbread. Some spice on the back end but not too much to kill the smoothness of this whiskey
