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 Double Oak is a richly layered Irish whiskey that offers a delightful interplay of flavours and aromas. The nose is complex, featuring honey sweetness combined with the bright notes of vanilla and a fruity undertone of pear, enhanced by hints of golden raisins and old leather. The palate is equally elaborate, starting with a honeyed, mouth-coating texture followed by dark berry jam, lemon peel, sweet biscuits, and a sprinkle of cocoa powder, all rounded off with soft peppery notes and floral flavours. The finish is long, marked by mocha and spice, leaving a full-bodied and warm impression that lingers pleasantly This whiskey is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of blending malt and pot still whiskey aged in both American and French Oak barrels, creating a beautifully complex spirit that is both luxurious and inviting.
