Nose
With Green Spot, the most impressive of Irish noses. There's a fruity, almost rye-like quality, and deft, honeyed sweetness, a touch of sherry, cream soda vanilla and some peppery notes. Breathtaking.
Palate
The flavours take off in all directions. Spiciness and a pot still backbone softened by sherry. Very firm with some toffee.
Finish
Oily, some liquorice and enormous sweet-sour complexity. Spicy and long.
Comment
Not quite perfect, but still an astonishing experience.
