Description

Egan’s Fortitude, a single malt Irish whiskey, takes you on a journey through a sherry-soaked orchard. Matured exclusively in Pedro Ximenez casks, known for their intensely sweet and raisiny character, this whiskey delivers a rich and complex flavor profile.

Aroma

The first sip invites you in with a warm embrace of honeyed sweetness, mingling with plump raisins and a hint of marzipan. Underlying these are whispers of sherry itself, with a touch of cinnamon adding a hint of spice.

Palate

The flavors burst forth on the tongue, a symphony of dried fruits – think sultanas, prunes, and even a touch of nutmeg. The sherry influence continues to play a starring role, with notes of toffee and baking spices dancing alongside the malty character of the Irish whiskey base.

Finish

The experience lingers long after the last sip, with a satisfyingly sweet and fruity finish. Hints of oak from the casks peek through, adding a touch of complexity to the lingering warmth.

Body

Egan’s Fortitude boasts a medium body, offering a pleasant weight on the tongue without being heavy or cloying.
