Clontarf 1014 Blended Irish Whiskey

caramel notes. Slightly Smokey but smooth finish

Aroma is light just like its coloring. Smooth taste but has a distinct peat-like taste. Not bad as a supper but there are better options out there.

Clontarf is a nice and full consistent blended whiskey. In order to generalize its taste, one is in a right to say that Clontarf is something between Tullamore DEW and Bushmills (if we take both in their original versions), though it has some mild distinct notes and its own certain elegant style (probably due to its low occurrence). The aroma is vibrant, nicely formed, though it lacks this noble vibe, however the balance is strictly considerable. It has some simple grain, malt and alcohol notes, a little bit of citrus, slight honey and vanilla hints along with some oaten or hay-ish tone. The palate is a bit less pronounced. Vanilla, some nutty flavors, spices, unripe apricots, much of a citrus or, to be more precise, a citrus peel, and the alcohol is slightly marked here again. The finish is lightly sweet and spiced. The aftertaste is about the burnt wood, honey and also the bitter herbals.
