"The bouquet features charred paper smells of toasted walnuts, roasted chestnuts, paraffin, cardboard, parchment, dry grain and herbs. Entry is grainy sweet and moderately oily; the midpalate stage is loaded with grainy breakfast cereal flavors and, at times, even comes off like oatmeal. Ends well on an oily, satiny note." 85-89 pts.

"The bouquet aromas include barley malt, asparagus, hollandaise, dry breakfast cereal, white peppercorns and salt. Entry is soft, citrusy-orangy, moderately baked and toasty; an almond nougat taste enters at midpalate and nicely offsets the dry maltiness and vegetal flavors. Shows solid presence and a hint of heather in the finish." 85-89 pts.

Ultra-Premium Quadruple-Distilled Irish Poteen. I.W.S.C. Silver Medal (Best in Class). Tasting Notes: Nose: Densely fruity, immediately attractive and appealing citrus zest mingles with summer fruit aromas. At various times melon, pear drops, grape fruit, raspberry and boiled sweets emerge. Taste:With plenty of water this makes a refreshing long drink. Drunk neat, this exceptionally very high volume quadruple-distilled Irish spirit naturally provides an overwhelming kick and is certainly not recommended to ever take it in this fashion! However, when substantially diluted with the usual range of mixers the complexity is overwhelming, as is the case, when used as a substitute cocktail spirit base. Flavour: Warming and peppery, the initial shock subsides and a balanced fruitiness shows through. With water the middle taste is longer and reveals more fruit. Finish: Long lingering and warming, with a dry and spicy tail. Color . Clear. Profile. An exceptional example of a smooth centuries old Irish Spirit.
