Another Irish whiskey from The Pogues (yes, the band) and West Cork Distillers. The band's first foray into the world of whiskey was a brilliant Irish blend, and now we have a single malt, aged in bourbon oak casks before it was bottled up at 40% ABV. Now we're going to have Fairytale of New York stuck in our heads for the rest of the day.
Fairly floral, with lavendar, sesame snaps, caramelised nuts and salted chocolate.
Dry oak spice and chai spices, with peanut butter, s'mores and floral malt.
A gentle finish of lingering caramel alongside cinnamon stick.

It looks like Whiskey... that's about it. Absolutely vile, weird taste. How can a single malt taste this bad? I wouldn't wish this disgusting liquid on my worst enemy. Avoid at all costs.
One could only admire the craftsmanship put into the development of that exquisite taste of burned motor oil and old army boots! Easily one of the most memorable flavours I have tasted since I once fell into an old sewer back when I was too young to experience the pleasure of that divine liquid.
Worst Whiskey I've ever tasted.
Rubbery, astringent, bizarre, and a horrible red (and presumably non recyclable) bottle. If Irish is your thing and you’re on a budget, stick to Black Bush.
Agree. Absolutely dreadful stuff. It should not be called whiskey. Awful spell of rotting sprouts with a similar aftertaste. It was so bad I wondered if it had been spiked. DO NOT DRINK
