マコーネルズ シェリーカスクフィニッシュ アイリッシュウイスキー、アイルランド 750ml

That first sip hit me with dried fruit sweetness that I wasn't expecting—the Sherry cask finish adds a rich complexity that makes the 5-year age feel much more developed.

The Oloroso Sherry cask finish really shines through—gives it a nice dried fruit sweetness without being overpowering. Smooth enough to sip neat, which surprised me for a five-year-old whiskey.

I was a bit skeptical about a 5-year whisky, but the Oloroso sherry finish adds a rich, dried-fruit sweetness that makes it taste far more mature. It's smooth enough to sip neat, which is a pleasant surprise for the price point.
