Tullamore Dew XO Caribbean Rum Cask Finish
Tullamore Dew XO is a unique novelty of Irish whiskey, which is extremely delicate, has a strong character, richer taste and reverberation of sweet tropical fruits. This whiskey is distilled three times, mixed three times and matured in oak barrels after Caribbean rum. It is the perfect combination of the Caribbean soul and the Irish heart.
The aroma of this whiskey has subtle vanilla and oak notes, which form the base; these are complemented by citrus tones, ripe bananas and light spices. The background is formed by the sweet aroma of dried fruits, dates and raisins.
The taste is smooth and creamy, dominated by notes of caramel and banana, which are intertwined with the sweetness of rum. The middle section brings a fruity profile (softer tropical fruits), followed by dried fruit and light spice; The finish is sweet, with hints of caramel, banana and a very pleasant aftertaste with a delicate spicy finish.
We recommend serving it neat, at room temperature, in a glass that allows the aromas to develop (e.g. Glencairn). If the taste is too sweet or you want to emphasise the fruity notes, a drop or two of water can help. It is also suitable for cocktails that allow the rum finish to stand out – tropical drinks or mixed drinks with a rum character.
