This is definitely an interesting dram. Banana, coconut, vanilla, lemon and more jumping out in this one, rounded out by light spiciness. Quite nicely done. I can see why they won awards. It's released by the Chapel Gate Whiskey Co. Not to sure where they sourced this stuff from but they picked the casks well. Only 400 bottles released i believe. @1901 I see you added the entry so i'm guessing you have a bottle or sample of this lying around?

@1901 Ah interesting. Would be a nice one to work through a bottle of. Quite unique.
*correction: it is a 16yo but won in the over 13yo category
I don’t have a bottle unfortunately. This was a 13yo Single Malt thar won Best Irish Single Malt at the Irish Whiskey awards and promptly sold out. I added it in anticipation of tasting it at WhiskeyLive last year. In the end i tasted The Battalion (interesting as it is from a mix of tequila and mezcal casks) and The Banner. ChapelGate stand out a bit by doing things differently and promoting well.
