Intro:
Distilled in Ireland and matured in ex-bourbon casks, this is O'Driscolls Irish Whiskey. Founded in 2022, this is a new brand. The whiskey is aged for at least 3 years and features both grain and malt in the blend. Let's dive in!
-
Nose:
Light, sweet, full of pears, honey and grain. A pang of youth and graininess is here but nothing off-putting.
-
Taste:
Easy-drinking and sweet, it’s devoid of ethanol and full of honey, apples and pears. Light graininess but nothing overbearing. Sweet and easy.
-
Finish:
Light rising bread on the finish, flaky sweet pastry, honey, almond and a touch of lemon zest.
-
Overall:
Overall, O’Driscolls is an easy-drinking whiskey. It’s sweet, and it’s certainly not terribly complex but sits well-poised to compete with competitors like Bushmills and Jameson on the shelf when it comes to inoffensive, pleasant Irish bottlings.
