Samuel Gelstons Pot Still Irish Whiskey Pinot Noir Finish 70cl 40%

This whiskey is the result of collaboration between two cousins - Samuel Gelston’s owner, Johnny Neill and Sam Neill, actor and vineyard owner, who is based in New Zealand. It sees the cousins bringing together the two sides of the family, whilst also merging the brilliant flavours and aromas of the two hemispheres. The whiskey has been triple distilled and matured for 19 months in ex-bourbon casks, before spending a further 21 months maturing in Sam’s French oak casks, which had previously held his prestigious Central Otago Pinot Noir. COLOUR: Rich Bronze NOSE: Malty with hints of strawberry, nutmeg and tropical fruit PALATE: Big, rich and sweet, with a hint of dryness, a note of blackcurrant and dash of spice FINISH: Smooth, sweet marshmallow and jam.
