The Pogues Single Malt – Irish Whiskey – 70 cl – 40% ABV

Description

The Pogues Single Malt is an iconic Irish whisky, created as a tribute to one of Ireland's most iconic bands, The Pogues. Known for their music that is steeped in tradition and daring, the band worked with West Cork Distillers to create a whisky that reflects their unique spirit.

This Irish single malt is made from premium barley and aged in bourbon oak casks. This maturation process gives it a subtle balance between sweetness and intensity, with delicate aromas and an elegant structure.

On opening, the nose reveals an aromatic bouquet of flowers and gourmet delights. Initial notes of lavender and wild flowers mingle with richer hints of caramelised nuts and salted chocolate, creating a harmonious and inviting olfactory profile.

On the palate, the attack is silky and slightly woody, evoking the influences of American oak. The flavours gradually develop, offering nuances of chai, peanut butter and toasted cereals. The sensation is full and comforting, with a lovely roundness brought on by ageing.

The finish is long and warm, with notes of vanilla toffee, cinnamon and a hint of sweet spices that linger pleasantly.

At 40% proof, The Pogues Single Malt is an accessible whisky, perfect for both novice tasters and connoisseurs looking for an authentic single malt that is easy to enjoy. It lends itself to all occasions, whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks or in a cocktail such as an Old Fashioned or a Whiskey Sour.

The Pogues Single Malt is much more than a whisky, it's a musical and taste experience, capturing the vibrant soul of Ireland and the festive spirit of the band that inspired it.
