This whiskey is quite light, even for an Irish whiskey. The unmalted barley notes don’t really come through until the finish. It is really easy to drink and is almost refreshing. There are some caramel notes in the finish and the unmalted barley notes remind you of a whole grain cereal of sorts. It’s a smooth whiskey and I’d use this whiskey to introduce someone to whiskey. Other than that I don’t think it’s anything terribly special. It’s floral and fruity and sweet, but you can find those things in a Speyside Scotch, but with a bigger punch of flavor.
