Tasting Notes

Gelston's 12 Year Old Sherry Cask Finish is a delightful Irish single malt whiskey that will tantalize your senses. The nose greets you with a harmonious blend of honeycomb sweetness, raspberry tartness, and a refreshing hint of mint, accompanied by the aroma of roasted coffee beans. As you take a sip, the palate is greeted by the zesty tang of orange peel, followed by the rich, molasses-like flavors of brown sugar and the decadent notes of chocolate-covered raisins. The finish is a slow, lingering warmth that builds up, unveiling layers of cinnamon spice and a peppery kick, leaving a pleasant tingle on the tongue. This expression has been gracefully finished in sherry casks, imparting a depth of dark fruit richness and complexity that perfectly complements the whiskey's bold character.
