Glendalough 17 Year Old Irish Whiskey - Mizunara Oak Finish
Glendalough
Tasting Notes
Introducing the Glendalough 17 Year Old Irish Whiskey, a truly unique and flavorful spirit that takes you on a captivating journey through the art of whiskey-making. This single malt whiskey embarks on its aging process in traditional American oak ex-bourbon casks for 15 years, allowing it to develop a rich and complex character. But the real magic happens when it's transferred to Japanese Mizunara oak casks for the final years of maturation. The Mizunara oak imparts an unparalleled depth of flavors, unveiling notes of succulent red apple, warm cinnamon, and decadent brown sugar, intertwined with the earthy aromas of sandalwood, heather honey, and a hint of liquorice. On the palate, a delightful harmony unfolds, with the sweetness of coconut and Crunchie Bars mingling with the zestiness of ginger and subtly grassy undertones. Toasted pecans and waxy peels add a delightful crunch, while cassia lends its spicy warmth. The finish lingers with the indulgent notes of Cadbury's Fruit & Nut, refreshing pineapple, and a subtle pepper kick, complemented by the luscious flavor of apricot. Bottled at 17 years old, this exceptional Irish whiskey is a true masterpiece, meticulously crafted to delight the senses and captivate the palate.
