Whiskey lovers, raise a glass! Roe & Co just upped the ante with their groundbreaking Roe & Co Solera Single Malt Irish Whiskey, and it's a game-changer. Forget your standard triple-distilled smoothness, this bad boy is bursting with complex layers thanks to a unique Solera finishing process. Think wine-inspired richness meets fiery innovation, all bottled up in a non-chill filtered masterpiece.
Here's the down-low on why this dram deserves a spot on your shelf:
- Solera magic: This ain't your average aging process. Roe & Co uses a layered cask system, constantly evolving the flavour profile with refills and first-fills of American Oak, Alligator Char, Chestnut, and Sherry casks. Imagine spicy sweetness, nutty depths, and luscious fruit notes all intertwined in a harmonious dance.
- Firsts galore: This is the brand's first Solera expression, and it's also rarely seen in Irish whiskey. Talk about pioneering spirit! Plus, it features casks from the very first batch ever distilled at the Roe & Co distillery, making each sip a historical treasure.
- Flavour explosion: Forget one-dimensional drams. This whiskey boasts hints of muscovado sugar, tropical fruits, maple syrup, roasted nuts, and dried fruit, all culminating in a medium-dry finish with caramelized pear and juicy tropical vibes. It's a flavour rollercoaster you won't want to get off!
- Mix it up: This whiskey is a chameleon, equally happy neat, on the rocks, with a splash of water, or starring in your favourite cocktail. The Head Distiller herself, Lora Hemy, encourages you to experiment and find your perfect serve.
