An easily savoured Irish Whiskey, created to celebrate the Irish Independence
Description
Independence Blended Irish Whiskey
(Previously known as Proclamation Blended Irish Whiskey)
With their Blended Irish Whiskey, the distillery aims to honour both the history and the people behind the birth of the Proclamation (the document which proclaimed the establishment of the Irish Republic in 1916).
As a triple distilled whiskey, it pays tribute to the three printers of the Proclamation, William O’Brien, Michael Molloy and Christopher Joseph Brady. After this process it is aged in new American Oak - which ensures a singularly smooth whiskey with a clean taste. Once sufficiently aged, the whisky is then matured in bourbon casks & blended with a touch of sherry-finished malt which gives a rounded, toasted finish.
The nose brings ripe pear aromas, along with aprocots and creme brulée. Hints of custard, and cappucino also shine through - and end with a touch of wood.
The palte is multi layered. Initially toasted brioche and baked pastry come forward, as well as rich yellow fruits. As the flavours develop, the mid-palate brings fusions of tannins and notes of fig and dates - which gives a robust flavour.
The finish is overwhelmingly smooth and creamy with a mellow finish, leaving hints of toasted cereal.
