2024 Whiskeys:

Nose: Cinnamon, clove oil and white pepper in balance with russet apples and ripe pears, on a back-ground of charred oak.

Taste: Cinnamon, green peppers and a touch of nutmeg combined with orchard fruits, vanilla and toasted oak. All laid upon a crisp barley core.

Finish: Long Pot Still oils and spices slowly fade to rich barley, toasted wood and a wonderfully complex honey flavour.

Nose: An initial aroma of freshly cut hay is complemented by a crisp orchard fruit character - green apples and pears, with a twist of lime zest. Mild pot still spices appear, deepening from green tea to hazelnut and milk chocolate.

Palate: The initial sweet mouth coating typical of the Irish pot still inclusion is quickly complemented by the subtle touch of hops and cocoa beans from the beer cask finish.

Finish: Long and sweet with milk chocolate and butterscotch.

Nose: Aroma of toasted oak, toffee and malt.

Palate: Mellow hints of vanilla and butterscotch.

Finish: Lingers with hints of lush barley and honey.

Nose: Rich and fruity with notes of tropical fruits, coconut, nectarines in yoghurt, guava and a thick core of sweet cereals.

Palate: Thick and full on the palate, with an intense, unctuous creaminess, alongside dates, walnuts and peels. Good peach and coconut notes, and a little cinnamon.

Finish: Long finish, and very fruity with notes of cinnamon and nutmeg and hints of potpourri.

 

Nose: Light honeysuckle, astringent

Palate: Light texture, hints of spiced apples and pears

Finish: Quick finish, interchanging bitterness and sweetness

Nose: Exceptionally well-balanced aromas of zesty peel and juicy orange citrus fruits, with sweet whiskey undertones.

Taste: Delicate, smooth and full mouthfeel with distinctive notes of orange zest as well as spicy, nutty, sweet vanilla.

Finish: Clean finish with a sweet orange aftertaste.

Nose: Pot-still spicy with a certain sherry sweetness.

Palate: weet at first,fading into a luxurious mix of malt and vanilla.

Finish: Incredibly smooth.

Nose: Light sweet citrus and green apple combined with vanilla undertones.

Palate: Early fresh fruit leads to a definite light spice followed by some toasted wood which evolves into a delicious vanilla sweetness.

Finish: Medium length, buttery mellowness with a touch of Marzipan accompanying the lingering vanilla.
