Inishowen Tasting note
in Tasting , Cooley“Light dram with a lovely licorice touch.”
86
A peaty blended Irish whiskey from Cooley, the last independent owned Irish distillery before it was bought by Beam.Inishowen offers a zesty, rich, smoky flavour.
Highly commended by critics, including Jim Murray who gave a previous batch 93 points.
If you like this blended whiskey, you should try the Connemara single malt, peated whiskey with an Irish touch.
This dram has a gold-like color.
Nose (85): more than average. honey, floral, citrus, vanilla, wood. Sweet but simple. Lacks of any complexity.
Palate (88): . honey, floral, cocoa, spices, licorice, vanilla. light but lovely sweet with a touch of licorice
Finish (86): average. honey, licorice, vanilla.
So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Inishowen with 86 points over 100.
