Loved it! Sweet and slightly spicy, a beautiful blend.

I really enjoyed this one. Instantly it is towards the top of my favorite Irish whiskys. Very smooth with a warming sensation. I get a lot of vanilla but not overpowering.

Another winner; semi sweet with a slight spicy finish.

There's a subtlety in the flavors after a couple of sippings. Plenty smooth for an Irish whiskey––it veers toward bourbon territory. The oak combination creates some fun exploring and the hints of spice suit my palate well.

The aroma is warm with a balance of dried fruit, spiced bread, and a hint of alcohol. I let the whiskey breathe and tasted it "neat." The liquid has body and coats the tongue with rich flavors of bread pudding and a hint of spice. Although it is definitely a whiskey in the back of the throat, it has all of the positive qualities of an expensive rum. I want to say, I don't drink whiskey- Ever! I bought this because of the name and the flavor profile sounded promising for my husband. It is the first whiskey I have smelled and was encouraged enough to willingly have a glass.

I really didn't find anything special about this one aside from its cool name.

Found this at Walmart in a gift set with 2 glasses for $38. After a few sips, it coverted this bourban man to Irish whisky!

This one grew on me. My first taste, caused me to think I made a mistake. But that is the thing with whiskey, sometimes it is the mood you are in. This is not for the casual drinker, it is for the person that wants to sit and investigate and hunt for all of the flavors this reveals. A lot of wood and dark and citrus fruit hidden in this one with a light pepper throughout.

Not impressed with this one. The flavor profile may be on point for everything but any zest or spice. This is a VERY mild whiskey. After a few sips, I don't even taste it anymore. Easy to drink, but a little too smooth for my taste.

I love it! This is my new favorite Irish whisky. It even edged out Redbreast, which I didn't think was possible. It has a unique depth and complexity under a very smooth taste.

I was very impressed. Great taste, perfect for sipping at the end of a long day!

Surprised how nice it was. Smooth, warm, with a bit of vanilla.

Tison, May 2, 2020

This is my new go to whiskey, I can’t believe how smooth it is!

One of the top 3 in my bar. Very smooth.

Writers tears is simply one of my favorites and this double oaked is just as great. I would say that the RedHead is the best but impossible to find. Its smooth finish and low cost make it a firm favorite.

This is my favorite Irish whisky! The blending of both styles and having them aged in both Bourbon and Cognac barrels creates a wonderful finish. I picked up 2 bottles of this at the Dublin airport last year, when it wasn't being exported. I am overjoyed to be able to get it through Flaviar.

For sure a great go-to Irish Whiskey. Smooth and flavorful, I find this to be a good crowd pleasing gateway whiskey to bring people to the Irish side.
