Light gold color. Creamy, floral, fruity aromas and flavors of honey drizzled red and green apples, sweet green jasmine tea, and lemon verbena with a round, dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, complex, medium-length finish conveying overtones of toffee apple candies, candied pecan, and banana. Delicious and smooth, this Irish Single Malt illustrates the finesse and ethereal flavors of great Irish Whiskey.

Single malt Irish whiskeys, like their Scottish cousins, are whiskies that are only made with malted barley. They are usually triple distilled through both column and pot stills, although there are a few exclusively pot-distilled brands.
