Tasting Notes

Nose

Lively and subtly sweet — biscuity grain, boiled caramel sweets, zingy green apple. Tropical fruit alongside custard and baked crumble topping.

Palate

Oat biscuits, warming spice that makes your lips fizzle. Deep caramel, hints of chocolate. The 60% malt and 40% grain blend creates genuine breadth. At 46%, good body.

Finish

Warm and biscuity — the grain and malt blend sustains together.

J.J. Corry The Lasóg is a Pour & Sip exclusive from Ireland's pioneering modern whiskey bonder — a blend of 60% well-aged malt and 40% grain Irish whiskeys. J.J. Corry, established in 2015 in County Clare, revives the historic Irish tradition of whiskey bonding — selecting and maturing whiskeys from other distilleries.

The bonding approach gives J.J. Corry access to quality whiskeys from established distilleries, which are then matured and blended with care. The 60/40 malt-grain split creates a whiskey with more body and character than grain-dominated blends, while the grain component provides smoothness and accessibility.

J.J. Corry The Lasóg demonstrates the quality that modern Irish whiskey bonding can achieve. The blend is well-assembled, the flavour profile engaging, and the 46% presentation is honest. A quality Irish whiskey from one of the country's most innovative operations.
