Pot Still Peated

About

The Glendalough Pot Still Peated 46% is an intriguing Irish whiskey that honors the tradition of Irish pot still distillation. Made with both malted and unmalted barley, this whiskey is aged for over seven years in American oak bourbon barrels. The addition of peat smoke introduces a unique dimension, making it an appealing choice for those who appreciate bold flavors. On the palate, this whiskey offers a complex blend of earthy peat smoke, honeyed malt, and roasted oak notes. The nose is pronounced with raw malt aromas and a hint of cinnamon spice. The palate reveals subtle smokiness accompanied by candied citrus and banana, delivering a rich and creamy experience. The finish is long, with lingering ginger spice and almond notes that tantalize the taste buds. This whiskey pairs exceptionally well with rich desserts like chocolate cake or a cheese board with aged cheeses, where the peat smoke and spices create a delightful contrast.
