Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is Irish whiskey with a story behind the label: a tribute to the 69th Infantry Regiment, the storied Irish regiment known for valor and heritage, conceived by Colonel (Ret) James Tierney, a former officer and historian of the regiment. Distilled in Ireland, it opens with an inviting nose of green apple, honey and a touch of vanilla, with subtle oak and a delicate floral lift. The palate builds on rich caramel and toffee, warmed by cinnamon and nutmeg and brightened by pear and apple, before a smooth, lingering finish of toasted oak and a whisper of spice. That balance of sweetness, orchard fruit and gentle spice makes it an easy pick for someone exploring Irish whiskey for the first time, and a meaningful pour for anyone with a connection to the regiment or an interest in its history. We carry it because the whiskey in the glass lives up to the tribute on the label, whether you sip it neat or over a large cube when it is time to raise a glass to camaraderie.
