Macaloney’s Searaidh Braiche Single Malt Spirit, NAS, 46 %

The Macaloney’s Searaidh Braiche Single Malt Spirit is available to buy from the distillery at CAN $ 90.

Nose: Ooh, a sherry bomb with a sweet persuasion. Prominent dried fruits, honey, and rich sherry notes. Dates, figs, and raisins stand out beautifully.

Taste: Full-bodied and decidedly sweet, with an unexpected spicy edge. Dryish in style with noticeable oakiness.

Finish: Relatively short, remaining dry, oaky, and very sweet.

Comment: Charming and a little rough around the edges.
