Nose
Light vanilla, green apple, a touch of honey and fresh grain. Clean and inoffensive, with a faint lemon zest brightness. Not much depth, but what is there is pleasant.
Palate
Sweet and simple — vanilla, toffee, a light malty cereal note. Bourbon cask influence provides the dominant character, lending a familiar sweetness and a gentle oak warmth. Smooth almost to the point of bland, but well-made within its category.
Finish
Short, clean, with vanilla and a fleeting touch of grain sweetness.
Expert Review
7.8/10An honest, affordable Irish blend — light and sweet with bourbon cask vanilla at its core.
