I’ll be direct - this is hella good. Tullamore has been doing some exciting cask finishes; their most recent, the rum cask finish, is quite enjoyable...but not on this level. The combination of the base whiskey’s smooth, honeyed, fruity, and lightly spicy character with the slightly tart, round cider works perfectly. I hardly even noticed that the ABV is only 40%; there’s a satisfying richness present, with hardly any spirit bite. For $40/liter, this is a great find and probably the best whiskey I’ve had from Tullamore.

Go figure, my local-ish purveyor I’d fine wines and spirits scored a couple of bottles...which is part of why I snapped it up.
Sounds very interesting. I’ll have to look for this the next time I’m at duty free
