Boutique-y Irish Single Malt 13-Year-Old Batch 2

A 13-year-old Irish single malt from an undisclosed distillery, bottled by Boutique-y Whisky Company. 

In whiskey terms, distilleries from the Republic Of Ireland and UK-goverened Northern Ireland count as "Irish distilleries".

Batch 3 is bottled at 48.4%, with 48.4% bottles in the release.

Tasting notes:

Nose: Fruity and Floral; Banana skins and Melon initially, softening to Banana custard. Jasmine brings the floral element. There are hints of icing sugar and cinnamon spice.

Palate: Soft and sweet initially, Cantaloupe melon, brown sugar, then warming woody spices follow.

Finish: A nice balance between sweet melon and wood spice that lingers

From Boutique-y:

"Ah, lovely Irish whiskey! Booming now, but it wasn’t so many years ago that the number of distilleries dwindled precariously, all joining forces at one stage simply to survive.

"It should also be remembered, however, that Irish whiskey has a long and glorious history and was the most popular spirit in the world back in the 19th century including (whisper it...) in Scotland!"
