It appears to be Total Wines and More in-house Irish brand, bottled at 40% abv but with no indication of provenance. It must be special because it says “handcrafted” on the label as opposed to the usual stuff made by Irish Cyborg-Robot distillers. The nose is floral and light, some fruit and hints of oak. The taste is creamy and smooth with toffee, vanilla and even hints of peach. The finish gets spicier with some heat, chilli and tobacco. With a little water there is a sweet Juicy Fruit gum note as well.
Overall a nicely balanced – spicier than your average – Irish whiskey.
