Product description

Product description
The Legendary Dark Silkie comes from the town of Donegal on the west coast of Ireland. It is produced by Sliabh Liag Distillers, who have named themselves after the peninsula on which Donegal is located. Until Sliabh Liag Distillers' own distillery is completed, they are initially producing this blend of Irish, triple-distilled, peated single malts, some of which are matured in sherry casks, unpeated single malts matured in ex-bourbon casks and a proportion of smooth grain whiskeys that have spent their maturation period in oak casks.
'Silkies' are mythical seal creatures from Irish mythology that transform into irresistibly beautiful women on land.

    Aroma: Pear Apple Peat Smoke

    Geschmack: süß, Obstmus, milder Pfeffer

    Abgang:

    Kommentar: Der zugekaufte Blend ist gut, sagt aber nichts über die zukünftigen eigenen Whiskeys dieser neuen Brennerei.

    Abgang: Peat Smoke Sweet Herb Coffee Tobacco Leather Fruit Pear Nuts Malt

    Kommentar: Ein spezieller Whiskey: Rauch, Süße und vor allem das Herb-Dunkle dominieren. Eine sehr interessante Mischung. Rund und weich. Vor allem wegen des super PLV fünf Sterne!!!
