J.J. Corry The Gael Batch 1 - Irish Blended Whiskey
Out of stock
The Gael is an award-winning Irish whiskey blended from 60% mature Irish single-malt whiskeys (from 11 to 25 years old) and 40% single-grain Irish whiskey (7 years old) to produce the fruity cornucopia you might expect from Irish whiskey but with extra levels of complexity from maturation in living oak. In the spirit of trust and transparency implied by the term "whiskey bonder", J.J. Corry openly states that this is liquid sourced from County Louth. The Gael is named after a bicycle invented and sold by the original bonded whiskey merchant J.J. Corry invented in the 1890s. J.J. was a keen cyclist and social secretary of the local club. Probably not surprising if he could bring whiskey like this to the meetings.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a warm honey-gold glow.
Nose
Bright orchard fruit—pears and apples—rise with lemon zest, framed by vanilla, honey and toasted barley. A nuanced oak backbone adds soft spice and resin, while delicate almond notes and a whisper of floral blossom lift the bouquet, hinting at the depth to come.
Palate
Silky and generous on the palate, it unfurls a fruity cornucopia—pear and citrus zest—alongside creamy vanilla and toasted oak. The mature malt and grain weave depth with gentle spice, a touch of almond and honey. The texture is supple and mouth-coating, finishing long with warm oak, subtle spice, and lingering citrus.
Finish
A long, graceful finish that lingers with orchard fruit and vanilla, fading into toasted oak. Spiced honey and citrus zest drift over a creamy malt core, leaving a warm, softly tannic glow that invites the next sip.
