Here in Denver for business (unfortunately not skiing), and I noticed this sitting at the hotel bar. Unopened, a bit dusty, and nestled between a JB and Redbreast. Triple distilled Irish matured in sherry cask? That’s not common, is it? Either way, a worthwhile pour. Light, sweet, but not too sweet. With a nice hefty backbone of raisins and dark fruits. Would I buy a full bottle? Probably not, but interesting to try if you ever see it at a bar.

Did the factory tour there two Septembers ago. Tasted several whiskeys and left also thinking that they were not as sweet as I expected. Not bad, but have never sprung for a bottle.
Most, if not all, Irish whiskies are triple distilled. The sherry cask part...probably not so much
