Irish whiskey
Blend ireland is experiencing a whiskey renaissance with several new distilleries producing a range of styles from single malts and blends to traditional single pot still. The gael is the first blended irish whiskey release from county clare-based blender and bonder jj corry. This second batch of the gael is made with a blend of 60% malt whiskey and 40% grain whiskey, matured in ex-bourbon and sherry casks. Vibrant and fruity, the gael is a mission statement for the style of whiskey jj corry plans to one day make itself once its own stock matures. Serving suggestions: serve neat or over good quality ice on a warm, summers day. Tasting notes the nose is fresh and alive with the heady, summery scent of amalfi lemons, toffee apples, acacia honey and fresh-cut hay. The palate is similarly vibrant with crunchy green apples, cereal and lemon posset, while a dusting of lime zest and ground peppercorns adds a tingly spiciness before a long, creamy and lemony finish.
