The Whistler Irish Whiskey Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish

Irish Blended Whiskey | Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish | Triple Distilled | 43% ABV

The Whistler Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish is a beautifully layered Irish whiskey from Boann Distillery in County Meath, Ireland. This expression combines carefully selected Irish malt and grain whiskeys that are matured in ex-bourbon casks before receiving a finishing period in Oloroso sherry casks. The result is a smooth and expressive whiskey where the sweetness of bourbon oak meets the rich fruit and nutty character of Spanish sherry.

Triple distillation contributes to its notably smooth character, while the Oloroso cask influence adds depth and complexity. Aromas of dry citrus, white grape, walnut, nougat, creamy raspberry, and dark fruit lead into a palate featuring bergamot orange, rich nougat, dried fruit, pear, and subtle tropical fruit nuances.

The finish is sweet and lingering, with dried fruit, gentle wood spice, and a delicate dry oak sensation. Bottled at 43% ABV, with natural color and without chill filtration, The Whistler Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish is an excellent expression for whiskey enthusiasts who enjoy fruit-forward Irish whiskey with a refined sherry influence.
