Irish Gifts for the Holidays ๐
Both are available at Total Wine.
Five Farms Irish Liqueur
Not cloyingly sweet–just right.
Flying Tumbler Irish Whiskey
Note: Powdered sugar, honey, toffee, and lemon citrus are known on the nose.
Palate: The palate delivers on the sweet and citrus notes again with hints of melon, sponge cake, slight white pepper, and lemon lozenges. The mouthfeel of this, clearly grain-forward whiskey, is delicate but well-rounded.
Finish The relatively short finish dials up the white pepper notes.
