High N Wicked - Foursquare Single Grain Irish No7
High N' Wicked Singular Limited Release No. 7 Foursquare "Mark X 2007" Finish is a meticulously crafted Single Grain Irish Whiskey, boasting a unique and sophisticated flavor profile. This limited release whiskey is a fusion of traditional Irish whiskey-making and innovative cask finishing, making it a distinctive choice for connoisseurs.
The whiskey is distilled in County Cork, Ireland, using a continuous Coffey column still. This method is known for producing a smooth and consistent spirit.
Initially aged in ex-bourbon barrels, the whiskey undergoes a significant transformation during its 6-month finishing period in casks previously used for aging 12-year-old single blended rum from Foursquare, a renowned distillery in Barbados. This rum cask finish imparts an exotic and complex layer to the whiskey, integrating the rich and warm flavors of the Caribbean into its Irish roots.
On the nose, coconut, treacle, lemon peel, almond, nougat, fig and vanilla - giving way to subtle tropical fruit notes of mango and candied pineapple. On the palate, rich and sweet on the open, highlighting baking spice notes of clove and cinnamon, immediately followed by rich caramel and candied hazelnuts. It lingers gently and finished soft with a hint of custard.
