1.0 stars - Poor, flawed; 750 ml bottle
I would like to see the chain of custody on this bottle.
Admittedly, I am not an Irish whiskey fan. But this got great reviews and sounded like a flavor profile I enjoy. Like almost all highly rated whiskey, it complexly disappeared from shelves for the last two years. Imagine my excitement seeing it back in stock at my favorite shop.
When I opened it was very tight, aroma and taste. Like I-am-in-very-uncomfortable-social-situation-and-do-not-know-what-to-say tight. Gave it time to breath. Gave it months in the bottle. Opens up. And reveals some discordant young and off notes.
This tastes like an imposter. Or this sold out rapidly and they overstretched existing stocks to replace.
