Distiller Notes
Elegant aroma of vanilla and toasted oak complimented by a touch of lime, succulent green berries, pears, and green sweet pepper. Light pepper carries onto fresh citrus, limes, and mandarin orange sweetness. A hint of cinnamon with vanilla and oak reveals its years spent in American oak. The full spectrum of flavors lasts well into the finish, slowly fading to expose the clean American oak foundation.
The result of an historically prohibitive tax placed on malted barley by the English crown, Irish Whiskey is most often produced from a combination of un-malted barley and other grains. Whereas most other Whiskeys are twice distilled, Irish Whiskeys are distilled three times in a column still and must mature in oak barrels for a minimum of three years. These intricate production steps combine to make them lighter, smoother and more approachable than other styles.
