Produced by Walsh Whiskey, Writers' Tears is crafted with an appreciation for Ireland's dual heritage of literary greatness and whiskey craftsmanship. The whiskey is non-peated, triple distilled, and aged in American Oak bourbon barrels, which contributes to its acclaimed flavour profile rich in honey, cinnamon, and coconut notes, combined with a creamy, buttery texture.
Writers' Tears Copper Pot delivers a remarkable and balanced Irish whiskey experience that captivates both newcomers and connoisseurs alike. From the first encounter, the nose reveals inviting flashes of apple intertwined with the comforting sweetness of vanilla and honey, all grounded by a distinctive pot still base. The palate unfolds smoothly, offering a rounded body that blends gentle spices with a vibrant burst of ginger and butterscotch, enhanced by subtle undertones of toasted oak and citrus. This harmonious blend of flavors culminates in a long, elegant finish, leaving lingering notes of milk chocolate and almonds that invite further contemplation. Its light yet enduring finish makes it a delightful and dangerously drinkable choice, especially on a warm day.
