Writers' Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey

Nose: a glossy Pot Still character: rather than the usual fruity firmness, the recognizable Pot Still traits are shrouded in soft honey tones which dovetail with lightening kumquat-citrus tones. Quite a curious, but always deliciously appealing animal; Taste: works beautifully well: the arrival is an alternating delivery of hard and soft waves, the former showing a more bitter, almost myopic determination to hammer home its traditional Pot Still standpoint; the sweeter, more yielding notes dissolve with little or no resistance, leaving an acacia honeyed trail; towards the middle a juicier malt element mingles with soft vanilla ... Score - 93. (Jim Murray, Whisky Bible, 2010)
