Quinn's Barrel Rested Poitin
Poitín — North Carolina, USA
Reviewed
June 11, 2019 (edited August 5, 2019)
This dirty blonde colored whiskey sports a Mashbill of Barley and Wheat. This is the aged version of their Drumlish Poitín unaged whiskey.
NOSE: Sweet Vanilla, Caramel, New Leather. Young and feisty with a good deal of heat.
NEAT: Vanilla, Leather and Wood up front...Backed by a dark cocoa note. Not much heat on a finish that leaves a tingly coating of Young Oak.
SPLASH: A dash of water or a large cube makes this a one note Vanilla affair.
VERDICT: This is a quality spirit, but I'll second @dubz480...the Rúa is miles ahead of this one. This may be the only instance I ever type these words but, I actually prefer the unaged version "Drumlish". I would love to see what a little more time in the barrel would do for this one. Keep up the good work, Ollie!

Totally agree, you can see the potential but right now just to young and sweet for me. I do agree the white dog they had was oddly tasty!
