Tullamore Dew Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Tullamore Dew
73
Tullamore Dew Blend
Tullamore Dew is the original blend known the world over for its smooth and gentle flavour. This mild blended whiskey has spicy, lemony and malty notes with charred wood undertones giving a soft, buttery, rounded flavour that lingers in the mouth.

Tullamore Dew is also widely acclaimed by whiskey connoisseurs; in 2005, it won a much-prized trophy at the International Spirits Challenge, the highest accolade in the drinks industry. The trophy was one of only four awarded to over 700 drinks products entered by companies all over the world.
TODO: Check if size is 70cl or 100cl
TODO: Check if strength is 40% or 43%

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (68): inexistent. alcohol, vanilla, cherries and honey. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (76): . light. grain, sweet, honey. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (76): no finish. grain and honey. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Tullamore Dew Blend with 73 points over 100.
