A five-year-old single malt whiskey from Killowen, bottled at 55% ABV without chill filtration or colouring in a 0.5 litre bottle.
After bourbon cask maturation, the whiskey was split between Killowen's own dark rum casks and PX sherry casks, then the differently finished whiskies were married. Batch 1 comprises 660 numbered bottles. The single malt comes from Cooley Distillery stocks.
The nose shows candied pineapple, peach and fruit sweets, with coconut flakes, vanilla, nougat, ripe red apples, marzipan and prune. The palate recalls rum-flambéed bananas, coconut and vanilla ice cream, with a creamy, syrupy mouthfeel, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, macadamia and Brazil nuts, ending with sweet raisin notes. The rather short finish leaves alcoholic warmth, crème brûlée and cinnamon pastry notes.
