| Glendalough Double Barrel comes out more like bourbon than anything typically Irish. Its single grain mash - a mixture of barley and corn - is aged in two sets of barrels: a second-use ex-bourbon cask from Kentucky and then later a Spanish Oloroso sherry cask as the finish. It's a lighter, straw colored whiskey that gets a lot of vanilla and tropical fruit character. (G. Clay Whittaker, maxim.com, March 13, 2015) (Marlborough Wine Show) |
