Background: I had this blind then was revelaed the bottle so keep that in mind. This is a triple blend Irish whiskey that was finished in barrel that previously held Demerara rum.
ABV: 43%
Nose: Faint, Grass, Sweet Butterscotch, Apples, hint of honey
Palate: Thick mouthfeel, Grassy, Butterscotch, warm apple, honey stronger now, rich sweet baking spices.
Finish: Warm, medium long, Grassy, Apple, burnt oak
Guess: This is an Irish, fairly prominent from the grassy apple note. Is fine and easy to drink if non complex.
Rating: 5/10
Would have never guessed this was finished but for a tiny sweetness but overall not a bad drink.
