W.D. O'Connell's Bill Phil Single Cask Strength
The second cask-strength release of Bill Phil from W.D. O'Connell Whiskey Merchants! This cask strength delight was triple-distilled by the team at Great Northern Distillery using a 55ppm peated malt barley sourced from Montrose, Scotland and finished in a first-fill ex-American whiskey barrel. On the palate, peat jumps forward on the first sip with a burst of smoked almonds and chili chocolate. Fruits from the orchard, apple and pear skins with a touch of white grape zinging the tongue.

Tasting Notes from the Producer | |
Aromas (without water) | Relaxed peat with pleasant alcohol initially. There’s lemon, herbs, mint and liquorice with crisp pears coming through gently. Touches of iodine throughout with something reminiscent of dusty mechanic’s cloth, but the fruit underlies with gooseberry and mango notes. |
