Boann Single Pot Still Madeira Cask Irish Whiskey Review
Initially aged in ex-bourbon barrels then finished in Madeira casks, this combination leads to a notably rich and concentrated single pot still whiskey, whose profile walks an enjoyable line between savory notes and sweetness. A bottling strength of 47 percent ABV only furthers its depth and lengthy finish, which serves little sprinklings of peppery heat. Enjoy its evolution over a large single ice cube or delight in its expressive character neat from a Glencairn.
