General description

It is a great whiskey for its price! Enjoyable and easy to drink.
I like it straight but i loved it mixed with ginger ale where i want a good whiskey but not to waste an expensive one.

Malt in the beginning with some berries coming through and a sharp albeit short metallic aftertaste (that I can't say I am a fan of).

lovely floral notes with a smooth finish, difficult to get these days as Jameson have stopped making it but I found that this was the best whiskey in it's price at the time (50-65€)

General description

Its floral and easy drinking although theres some roughness to it. Its not as bitter as I remember it from years back. But I find it very boring and not very rewarding.

Hola, un irlandés excesivamente fácil y suave. El sherry oloroso esta muy presente. Sin profundidad.
Saludos whiskylovers!
