Tasting Notes from Celtic Whiskey Shop and Wines on the Green
![]() |
|
Nose | The crisp Pot Still spices are seamlessly enriched by the woodland fragrances of the Irish oak. Sweet vanilla notes are given depth by some chocolate honeycomb and coffee beans, whilst the balancing rich fruit aromas of red berries, pineapple and ripe banana compliment the subtle aromatic oils. |
Finish | An exceptionally long finish, with some sweet spices slowly fading, leaving the final bow to the Irish oak. |
Tasting Notes from the Producer | |
Flavour | The typical Pot Still spices are fortified by the Irish oak character. Robust yet mellow, clove and cinnamon give way to dairy fudge and milk chocolate sweetness combining with a touch of stewed apple. |
