Got together with a friend (LKH) for good conversation with a variety of Irish Whiskey’s. We ran the gamut. Amongst the collection, to share, she brought her bottle of Writers Tears which she brought back from her Europe trip. Nosing reveals orchard fruits (apples/pears) and honey. Very floral. Somewhat akin to a scotch Speysider. The whiskey is extremely lightweight, thin and soft. Butterscotch, barley sugar, cereal notes, tea with honey are the prominent flavors. Somewhat flavorful and sweet with a profile on par with many Irish Whiskey’s. This finishes with flavors of oak and ginger. Overall, this is a gentle, sweet whiskey that's easily enjoyable and a good for having with friends while sharing memories and stories. [Dry Glass: caramel apples][86/100][Tasted: 11/22/16]
