- Description
- This Irish blend marries single malt and single grain whiskey, then finishes in intensely charred first-fill bourbon casks that impart subtle smokiness atypical of Irish whiskey. The heavy charring deepens caramel and toffee notes while introducing complex wood spice, balanced by the blend's inherent sweetness and creamy texture. A modern take on Irish blending, suited to those seeking something beyond traditional smoothness.
