Irish Whiskey Magazine - The Dubliner Irish Whiskey

The Dubliner Irish Whiskey

Released by Dublin Liberties Distillery and sporting a brand new look, this blended 3 year old Irish whiskey is matured exclusively in Bourbon casks. Bottled at 40% ABV and retailing at €30.

Omar Fitzell Notes

Nose

Spirity and young. Fresh cut grass, barley and orchard fruits.

Palate

Light but not in any way as spirity as the nose suggests. Flashes of some pleasant sweet, fruity notes with more barley appearing mid palate.

Finish

Short. Touch of sweetness remains with a slight pepper spice but overall, nothing too complex.

Overall

While lacking some balance, overall, it is not the worst whiskey on the market. An easy drinker that would most likely appeal to those newer to neat whiskey drinking.

 

 

Al Higgins notes

Nose

Delicate, grainy and lightly perfumed with citrus, a touch of bubble-gum, violets, honeydew melon and green apples.

Palate

Soft, juicy and light. Very delicate flavours of citrus, melon, green apples and mint.

Finish

Some dusty American oak and spice. Rather short but pleasant enough

Overall

A decent blend that works well given the short maturation. Certainly more for mixing or serving over ice.
