The 'D.E.W.' in Tullamore D.E.W. comes from the initials of a General Manager at the Tullamore distillery in the later 19th Century, named Daniel E. Williams.
Fruity and biscuity. There are gristy notes with caramel and toffee sweetness and plenty of peels.
Good body with notes of sherried peels and spice, granary toast with butter and honey, grains and vanilla cream.
Quite vegetal and long with notes of caramel and toffee.
Drinkable..Bells without the headache!?..
Wouldn't drink this on its own, but it makes an excellent Irish Coffee. I greatly prefer this to Jameson's.
I can feel the hint of vanilla and toffee in the nose and first taste. There isn't much more to it. It's smooth, but that smoothness doesn't stick around much in the aftertaste. Nice for the price, but next time I'll spend a bit more and go for my usual brand.
Poor blend
