Meaghers 1878

A robust pleasing yet simple session whisky 1878 is made for mixing and shooting but not for contemplation. Wet stones with some sweetness on the nose predict the almost liqueur-like sweetness of the palate. It quickly becomes hot and zippy with a white pepper payload. Before long some slight bitter pithiness creeps in then subsides leaving crème brulée and Caramac candy bar with a rich almost eggy mouthfeel. The finish is short with cleansing grapefruit pith.
