 The peat smoke that rises from the fires up through the drying malts guilds the barley with a delicately complexity that speak to the rich history of Irish whiskey production.

Tasting Notes

"Up front aromas of peat smoke speak of a tradition that has long since faltered, but this whiskey is anything but one-dimensional.  Behind the peat are delicate floral and honey notes, backed by sweet tones of malted barley and charred oak.  One sip reveals the complexity of this whiskey with rich notes of cocoa, smoked honey and toasted barley with distinct highlights of bright peat smoke.  The finish lingers with layers of smoke, sea salt and heather honey."
