Connemara Original Peated Single Malt

Nose is a nice biscuit and slight peat. Taste is more peaty with a honey toasted finish.

Whiskey #3 Nine Irish

My daughter bought me this one as part of the ‘Peated Malt Distinction’ gift pack. Being my first Irish whisky I was rather curious. The nose was rather flat, but there was definitely some smoke. The flatness also appeared in the palate, but besides smoke there were hints of oak, vanilla, and while I don’t find this in other reviews, I tasted herbs, and definitely licorice. While not unpleasant, the herbs and licorice were a bit too dominant for me. Somehow, it made me think of a mediate Speyside dram, with some added Jägermeister.

it's a little of a one trick pony - all peat and no depth. so much band aid and iodine.
