Deep amber in the glass. Nose: vanilla, malt, bananas, nail polish (polish, not polish remover). Palate: not much here. A little more burn than expected at 40% ABV, and malt. A very grain-forward, cereal flavored dram. Finish is a little hot, a bit bitter, and very short. Forgotten almost immediately upon swallowing.
As you can see, I'm not overly impressed with this bottle, which I picked up for St. Patrick's Day. I tried really hard to pick up aromas and flavors that, for me, just weren't there. I'm sure I could have done much better with a different Irish. The store I was in at the time didn't have Green or Yellow Spot, which is what I was looking for. I'm thinking this bottle is going to last me a while.
I'd put this in the mid-to upper 70's for 3 stars.
