The Irishman Small Batch Founder’s Reserve Review
This release contains an interesting blend of 70 percent single malt and 30 percent pot still whiskeys. The result is a whiskey that's robust enough for cocktails but also has plenty of character to enjoy on its own. Ripe peach and vanilla aromas lead the nose, while the palate is full of spice and dark chocolate notes.
