Tasting Notes
"With relatively low nasal character it is easily recognizable to be an Irish whiskey. The forefront of the palate is sweet like honey, but quickly develops in the herb department with fresh sage standing out, in particular. Even not ever tasting the Concannon wine itself one can easily tell a noticeably dry and fruity finish dominated by fresh honey and dried apricots."
