Flying Tumbler - The Bird, 43%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2025 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Irish Whiskey
A combination of two blended components, matured in bourbon and married in oloroso sherry casks respectively, the nose lifts off with flowers, honey, white pepper, fresh oak, vanilla cupcakes, lemon shortbread, almond ice cream, and lemon meringue pie. Moreish and distinctive, the flavors take flight through honey, elderflower, lemon, peppercorn, apple pie, caramel, toasted hazelnuts, clove, and banoffee, landing with a flutter of roasted spice and crème brûlée on the finish.
