The creation of master blender Alex Thomas, The Sexton Single Malt Irish whiskey is made from 100% Irish malted barley, triple distilled in copper pot stills. After, the liquid is aged in Spanish Oloroso sherry casks imparting a rich and fruity character. It comes in a rather eye-catching hexagonal bottle, too.
Rich aromas of nuts, marzipan and dark chocolate with a pinch of spice.
Dried fruit followed by honeycomb sweetness, apricots, lemon zest, prunes and oak spice.
Woody on the finish, with honeyed sweetness coming through.
Very simply, its Christmas cake in a glass. Well done to the creators team fornproducing a truly beautiful single malt. The abv should appeal to a greater swathe of the buying public and this msy have been the master distillers intention. There are many cs examples in the marketplace so if this is what you want, please do not castigate the Alex for creating this sublime masterpiece of a sipping single malt.
I bought this after meeting Ross Marquand from the Walking Dead, he convinced me to try it! Was not disappointed. A smooth, light and sweet whiskey! Up there with my top single malt whiskeys and plus I absolutely love the bottle.
Soft, smooth and sweet
Soft considering it's quite dark in colour
Very nice taste ??
