For me this knocked my other favorite Irish pot still the red breast right off it's perch. Beautiful viscosity and a taste that keeps me swirling the whiskey around and around my mouth before I swallow.The three barrels really each stand out but also blend nicely. You really get the balance between the vanilla of the bourbon, Sherry and the honey sweetness of the malaga. Really love the spice of the black pepper that comes through as well. It does tend to be at the upper limit of what I can bare sweetness wise though. Almost a dessert whiskey. A whisky that after a year open with only a few shots left still tastes great
