Batch 1 / 58.7% ABV Nose - Very clean fruit, prunes, honey, raisins, grape juice reduction, orange (w/ water) Pretty much the same, but feels a bit more "creamy" almost like all the original scents were turned into a cream-saver Taste - Bit hot up front, very clean though, hot fruity heat, bright raisins, honey, hint of chocolate, sweet clementine, pineapple, grassy (w/ water) Initial head is reduced, less bright but more milky/creamy vibe, similar to a tropical fruit yogurt Finish - Gentle lingering spice, grassy fruits, ginger spice, orange, dried papaya "funk" (w/ water) Heat returns a bit more here but otherwise mostly the same finish Score - 87/100 Final Thoughts - So I probably wouldn't have pegged this as an Irish whisky based on the tasting notes. Definitely a bit more intense fruits and the creamy mouthfeel was nice, but it still didn't fully feel like a full malt whisky. This had the clean sharpness I typically get from grain whiskies, but in this case it seemed to work as it made the fruit flavors really pop out. A bit of water interestingly brought out some creamy mouthfeel/buttery vibe which was nice, so I think this definitely does a bit better with a hint of water. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - Maybe Would I buy a bottle? - Maybe NOTE - All reviews are done without factoring in price.
