Waterford Bannow Island 1.2

The second release from Bannow Island, edition 1.2 was distilled using barley grown by Ed Harpur on the extreme Southern coast of Co. Wexford. This expression was matured in a combination of first-fill American oak, virgin oak and French oak casks for four months longer than Bannow Island 1.1.

The nose has a malty sweetness, with ripe orchard fruits, sultanas and floral notes. Fruity notes continue into the palate, which becomes sweet with honey, caramel, biscuits and a hint of spice. Expect a long and oily finish, with a kick of spice that turns dry.
