Portrait: What makes the Writers Tears special

Writers' Tears is a special Irish whiskey that pays homage to Ireland's great literary tradition.
The name alludes to an old Irish saying: When a writer cries, tears flow from pure whiskey. This poetic thought is reflected in the character of the bottling - it combines traditional production with cultural depth.

Writers' Tears is produced by the Walsh Whiskey Company, which is dedicated to reviving classic Irish whiskey styles. The whiskey is a so-called 100% pot still blend, which means that only pot still whiskey is used - a typically Irish blend of malted and unmalted barley, distilled in copper stills. This production method has long been at the heart of Irish whiskey.

Maturation takes place in former oak bourbon barrels, which gives the whiskey depth and structure. Chill filtration is deliberately avoided to preserve its natural texture. Writers' Tears is bottled at 40% ABV. at drinking strength.

This bottling is aimed not only at whiskey lovers, but also at friends of Irish culture - a delight with a literary background and artisanal soul.

Tasting Notes: This is how the Writers Tears tastes like

  • Nose: Soft, sweet aromas of honey dominate, accompanied by warm, toasted toast and fresh citrus fruits
  • Palate: Creamy and smooth with an increasing honey sweetness - the profile is complemented by soft vanilla and malt notes, fruity accents, caramel, and a hint of oak
  • Finish: Long and warming with a subtle, pleasant sweetness that lingers long afterward
