Made by Wicklow Hills Whiskey Company, cut with water from the family well, and aged in former Bourbon and oloroso Sherry barrels. The end result: a mild vanilla scent with hints of pineapple and lemon zest and a light, creamy palate. Look for vanilla, lemon cream and honey, finishing smoothly with ginger, cinnamon and cayenne heat. A splash of water teases out more vanilla, oak and a hint of cocoa sweetness. Pale gold in color. Aromas of vanilla, honey and baked fruits (confit). Very smooth entry and then expansive with a mouth coating, oily texture. Mid palate shows a nuttiness and warmth with hints of raisin and plum. Long, clean finish with subtle marmalade notes and caramel.
