I'm not a huge fan of Irish whiskey, but this one intrigued me. I had a dram of this tonight after having a dram of Macallan 15 PX cask, and the differences couldn't be any greater. This was definately less elegant, but more fruity and sweet. I actually couldn't smell any aromas, but that was probably because I had just had the Macallan. On the palette, definitely sweeter---papayas, mangoes, and coconuts. Quite smooth, leaving a sweet finish. Out of the Irish, this was by far my favorite (I've only had Redbreast 12, Green spot, Yellow spot, and Teeling single grain. I dont think this is available in the US, but if your travels take you abroad, it's worth seeking out
