The nicest Irish whiskey you can buy. The 15 is nearly a bit too smooth, but this is a real symphony of taste, love it.

für mich der wohlschmeckendste, mildeste " Whiskey für Damen". Habe ich zum ersten Mal in Irland getrunken, in einem urgemütlichen Pub, wo man mehr als 200 verschiedene Whiskeys bestaunen kann....einfach toll!!!

Das fruchtige und malzige Aroma hinterlässt einen guten Eindruck. Dabei belibt der Malt insgesamt sehr weich und mild. Eine sehr gelungene Abfüllung.

Weich und sanft, vollmundige harmonische Vielfalt mit immer neuen Überraschungen. Schlägt vieles, das von der anderen Seite der Irischen See stammt!
