Gold color. Aromas and flavors of fennel seed, red berries, cracked black pepper and roasted beef, and canelé with a satiny, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, complex, medium-long finish revealing notes of apple butter and poached pear, angelica root, anise, and orange peel. A fruit-forward Whiskey with rich and delicious under currents of baking spice.

Single malt Irish whiskeys, like their Scottish cousins, are whiskies that are only made with malted barley. They are usually triple distilled through both column and pot stills, although there are a few exclusively pot-distilled brands.
