Sexton Single Malt Irish Whiskey Ireland 750ML

Wine Enthusiast 90 points – Within the squat, hexagonal-shaped bottle, this tawny whiskey is scented boldly with baked pear, vanilla and honey. The smooth, oak-forward palate suggests a Bourbon-like profile, finishing long with lots of honey, plus echoes of nutmeg, clove and lemon peel. Finished in oloroso Sherry casks..March/2019

Whisky Advocate 89 points – More remarkable than its hexagonal, opaque black bottle is the fact that this single malt Irish whiskey (likely produced at Bushmills Distillery) was aged in oloroso sherry butts and yet carries such a reasonable price. One reason may be its age-just 4 years old-but don’t think that this whiskey tastes overly youthful. Warm apple pie a la mode on the nose leads into a body that is heavier on the vanilla and Heath Bar notes. It would be fine to sip neat, but glugging some over ice works even better..July/2018
