Golden Moon Triple Irish-Style, 46%

Price: 69 Issue: Summer 2022 Reviewer: Ted Simmons Category: Single Malt American Whiskey


Triple distilled from 100% malted barley and aged in new American oak. The nose shows clear malt and wood influence, notes of malted milk balls, Popsicle stick, green banana, and vanilla ice cream in a sugar cone. There's more wood on the palate, which shows a zippier sense of spice, a creamy texture, and a palatable amount of heat. A mouth-coating finish rounds it out nicely. An unusual style but highly sippable. (1,000 bottles)
