A decadent Irish whiskey with an apt name for the day that’s in it, The Whistler P.X. I Love You Single Malt is the ideal gift for your Valentine this year.
Part of the Whistler range of Irish whiskey from Meath distillery, Boann, it is finished in hand-picked Spanish Pedro Ximenez (giving it its PX name) sherry casks for nine months, creating a delicious sherry nose.
Made from 100% malted barley, it spent the first part of its life in ex-bourbon barrels. The dried fruits and brown sugar from the nose are joined by walnut and zesty citrus on the palate.
Official Tasting Notes:
Nose – Fantastically delicious sherry nose. Dried berries, raisins, cherries and sultanas/golden raisins, with candied orange and sticky brown/demerara sugar.
Palate – Wood forward opening, with an incredibly viscous yet crisp palate. The dried fruits and brown sugar from the nose are joined on the palate by walnut, zesty citrus and a hint of leather.
Finish – Walnut, dried fruits and the subtle wood prickle remain for a lengthy dry finish with a subtle hint of dark chocolate.
The Whistler P.X. I Love You whiskey costs €55.95 for a 70cl bottle and can be purchased online from Boann Distillery
