Lambay Whiskey

Small Batch Blend

I would say it is perhaps a little cautious and could do with a little more character development.

Tasting Notes

Phoebe Calver

Taster

Nose: Toffee apples, followed by hard-boiled apple-flavoured sweets. There’s a hint of solvent before a rush of homemade vanilla custard and freshly sanded pine shelves.

Palate: Quite a light mouthfeel, more of the vanilla custard but it’s warming with a hint of spice. Thick almond slices covered by baked apples and a dusting of light brown sugar.

Finish: Medium to short, with hints of almond and a little leafy greenery.

Comment: I would say it is perhaps a little cautious and could do with a little more character development.

Score: 7

Taster

Nose: Intense vanilla, pear drop and green apple. Werther’s Originals and dried coconut. Some subtle toffee popcorn aromas and a little white grape. A touch of lemon zest and some lovely wood spice notes of clove and cinnamon.

Palate: Delicate and sweet. Lots more vanilla and icing sugar, more green apple.

Finish: Short and sweet. Yet more green apple and some hints of leafy greens too.

Comment: Easy-going, simple stuff.

Score: 7.1
