W.D. O’ Connell Bill Phil - Batch 02
Here's the second batch from W.D. O'Connell's Bill Phil range (named after the O'Connell family nickname from back in the day, coming from William Philip O’Connell, a blacksmith known for making great tools for footing turf). It's a single malt Irish whiskey, which was made with peated malt that has been triple-distilled - not a common sight in the slightest! Made at the Great Northern Distillery in Dundalk, it's a light, fruity with, with intriguing wafts of smoke coming through too.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Grassy malt with a whiff of earthy smokiness, balanced by crisp green apple and poached pear warmth.
Palate
Citrusy notes grow on the palate - think flamed orange peel and grapefruit. Oily smoke, toasted malt and buttery vanilla.
Finish
Softly spicy with cassia and clove, while maintaining a fruit-forward freshness.
