One of the few Irish whiskeys that I have in my inventory of ~500 bottles; always a pleasant surprise whenever I pour a dram of these, especially bottles are the respectable age of 25+. A good, easy to drink Irish whiskey but not outstanding, too thin & definitely lacks some oomph; I normally don’t like Rum cask but this was better than expected
Nose
Rich floral nose, the rum cask influence is definitely there, cane sugars, grassy, fresh
Body
The rum taste is balanced with the whisky, not too sweet, still very fragrant, creamy, fresh, definitely fruity, orchards Surprisingly thin body for a 52,9% whisky
Finish
A light fruity & honey finish, slightly bitter / spicy at the end
