Nose

Firmer with some immediate pot still fruitiness. Quite grainy and spirity.

Palate

Decent pot still hardness with caramel and spice. Some malt-loaf sweetness, but too much caramel.

Finish

Medium length; the caramel disappointingly lingers but the vanilla and spices ensure complexity.

Comment

Could do better. Superior to the standard Tullamore Dew, with an engaging sweetness which works well with the fruity pot still. Not bad.
