James J. Fox has partnered with West Cork Irish Whiskey to unveil a special limited edition 8-year-old Single Malt Irish Whiskey. An ideal whiskey gift, this latest venture with West Cork Irish Whiskey, a name celebrated for its innovative approaches and commitment to quality, represents a fusion of tradition and innovation.
The 8-Year-Old Single Malt is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and time-honored techniques and it exemplifies the meticulous aging process behind this exceptional whiskey. For the first seven years, the spirit matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon and Sherry casks, each imparting its own unique characteristics. The ex-Bourbon casks lend smooth vanilla undertones, while the Sherry casks contribute sweet, nutty notes. The whiskey’s journey is completed with an additional year in a rye cask, which infuses it with a distinct spice and depth, setting this single malt apart.
Bottled at an impressive 54.7% ABV, this limited release yields only 160 bottles, making it a prized possession for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Fresh and vibrant, with aromas of green apples, pear drops, icing sugar, honey, and digestive biscuits.
- Palate: Sweet and flavorful, featuring notes of apple strudel, lemon drizzle, burnt toffee, charred oak, and a hint of cinnamon.
- Finish: A dry oak finish with black forest fruits, cellar mustiness, and a long-lasting tingling dryness.
Whether you’re savoring it neat, on the rocks, or in a thoughtfully crafted cocktail, this limited edition whiskey promises a memorable experience. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of this unique collaboration and taste the exceptional results of this remarkable partnership.
