It’s the first Pot Still from An Fear Grinn and what an adventure to get to here. Spending over 5 years in Bourbon and then Rye cask for finishing. The resulting whiskey bursts with zesty lemon with zingy orange and edged with green apple freshness. With Pot Still and Rye spice and distinctive green fruits, this is one to savour. From an Fear Grinn (the smallest independent on the island and Dundalk’s own whiskey brand!). A Numbered Limited Edition of 210 bottles. Hand filled and labeled. Non-chill filtered-Triple distilled – 46% ABV Now the really good bit! Aromas: Zesty, Vibrant, gorgeous black cherry aroma, toasted granola, dried strawberries, bakewell tart, preserved sweet lemons. Sweet crisp apples, warm brioche and spiced biscuits. Palate: Spicy, sweet cereal notes followed by crisp green, bright spry notes. Dried fruit, sultanas, raisins and cherries. Great peppery / grassy rye flavours with sweet toffee caramel merging beautifully to give a really well balanced delight. Finish: Sings along with wonderful spice, green fruit and light sweetness all shining out. What they’re saying…! “Light, bright & fruity, gentle palate, mild mannered, easily accessible offering yet retains a depth of character & engaging attractiveness. Nice!“ |
