Comments:


This is pure pot still whiskey, 7 yo vatted with 8 yo, matured in various sherry casks (including oloroso and fino). A bonded whiskey, distilled by Midleton for a bottler, in this case Mitchell & Son of Dublin. It tastes like Copella apple juice turned into a whiskey! Very light, and I think this would be fantastic on ice.

Verdict:

I like this.
