GLENDALOUGH 7 YEAR OLD IRISH SINGLE MALT - JAPANESE MIZUNARA OAK
Japanese mizunara is the whiskey world's most sought after species of oak, and, we think Irish single malt is its pinnacle. They were bound to be brought together. And now they are bound together with the Japanese red thread of fate .
Our relentless search for the most flavourful oak in the world took us from our own wooded mountains in Wicklow to those in the volcanic north of Japan - Hokkaido - where we found it. Mizunara.
As the first Irish whiskey brand to use the rare and exotic mizunara, we had very much ventured into the unknown. Bringing Irish single malt and Japanese oak together went far off the beaten path, literally, but it has led to this wonderfully different whiskey.
Non-chill filtered. No colour added.
TASTING NOTES:
- Colour: Rich amber.
- Nose: Vibrant, fruity and floral.
- Palate: A luxuriously smooth mouthfeel with notes of dark chocolate orange, sandalwood and cinnamon synonymous with mizunara whiskies.
- Finish: An exceptionally long finish of toasted oak and oriental spices, with the dark chocolate lingering even longer.
