Tyrconnell, Single Malt, Irish Whiskey

700ml, 40.0% abv, Ireland

“Wonderful, honeyed, slightly syrupy entry with apples and crisp, toasted rye bread-like grain which brings a subtle spiciness while juicy citrus notes bring a nice mouthwatering acidity. Towards the end, there are faint cocoa nib hints that add a mild earthiness”.

Description

NOSE : The nose on Tyrconnell Single Malt Pure Pot Still Irish Whiskey is very fruity with clear hints of fresh apple, and lime citrus. There is a rich young malt behind that.

TASTE : The citrusy, and young malt feel that was given at the nose come back in to play as it makes its first impression. This lasts for a much longer time than in many whiskeys while the Tyrconnell decides if it is a dry or sweet Irish Whiskey, Then the decision is made, as the sweetness wins out. The citrus theme carries throughout the taste and is joined right at the end with a bit of chocolate.

FINISH : The finish of this whiskey dries out with the oak finally making its appearance. The chocolate tends to bitter out, and then it’s gone.
