Athrú Small Batch Release #1
Lough Gill
Tasting Notes
This Athrú Small Batch Release #1 is a delightful blend of malt Irish whiskeys, carefully crafted from a harmonious marriage of bourbon, Oloroso sherry, and Madeira casks. The nose tantalizingly greets with vanilla tablet and crème brûlée aromas, subtly complemented by a hint of raspberry jam that adds a delightful fruitiness. On the palate, the berry notes take center stage, with bursts of fresh strawberries and blackcurrants dancing on the tongue, still enveloped in the comforting warmth of vanilla. The finish lingers with notes of peanut brittle, waxy lemon peel, and dry oak, leaving a delightfully complex yet balanced impression. This small batch release from Lough Gill truly showcases the art of blending, offering a delicious and multifaceted experience that seamlessly blends rich toffee, warming spices, and vibrant fruity flavors.
