Tasting Notes

Nose

Bright, juicy fruits, a hint of nuttiness, Manuka honey and barley. The ex-Pinot Noir and ex-Syrah barriques — previously used for Copeland's overproof rum — add a complex, layered fruitiness.

Palate

Oily, mouth-coating texture with heat, spice, rich woody tannins and brown sugar. Dark golden toast. The double distillation gives it body and presence. At 57.8% cask strength, intense and rewarding.

Finish

Long, warm and dry with a lingering sweet floral character. The rum-seasoned wine barriques sustain through the close.

Expert Review

8.2/10

Copeland's double-distilled single malt at cask strength — Pinot Noir and Syrah rum barriques creating Northern Ireland's most ambitious whiskey yet.
