This limited edition Irish single malt has been initially matured in American white oak casks, and then finished for an extra 6 to 8 months in ex madeira casks to impart further depth and flavor. The result is a bright, clean, fruit-forward single malt with complex notes of peach, mango and cantaloupe, balanced by hints of honey, vanilla cream, marzipan and coconut.
NOSE : Firm and malty yet with a scented exotic fragrance, orchid/flight frangipan. Wood.
PALATE : Soft and seemingly simple start then things pick up. A juicy mouthwatering quality reminiscent of mango. Balanced. Some chocolate.
FINISH : Fruit juice.
COMMENT : Well put together, the finish not too obtrusive.
