THE QUIET MAN 8 YEAR OLD SINGLE MALT IRISH WHISKEY

The Quiet Man is made by Ciaran Mulgrew who named his whiskey after his father, John Mulgrew.

John worked as a bartender around Belfast for 50 years and like all good bartenders he was true to his code and never told tales. hence the name- The Quiet Man.

Aged in Bourbon barrels, the 8 year old is deep in colour with floral notes and hints of nutty almond and white chocolate.

On the palate it has a lovely spice, flavours of roasted nuts and a hint of cocoa chocolate.

The addition of mineral water opens up the whiskey to even more floral and fruity aromas.

Though i must say, i prefer it without the addition of water..

This really is a lovely whiskey and for a first attempt they really have outdone themselves.
