History,
Made of 100% Irish-grown barley, Dunbell Edition 1.1 was grown by Ned Murphy, east of the River Nore in County Kilkenny. Dunbell (Dún Bile, edge fort) lies east of the River Nore in County Kilkenny. Grower Ned Murphy’s barley ripens in the shadow of Tullaherin’s round tower, site of a 5th century monastery where monks converting the Osraige (deer people) must have favoured the deep loamy soils derived from glacial drift of limestone, sandstone & shale.
Cask composition: 33% first-fill US oak, 22% virgin US oak, 26% premium French oak and 19% Vin Doux Naturel.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Toffee, green apple. A nose that reminds me of autumn. If you had porridge with raisins, cinnamon, dark chocolate, and a nip of Dunbell followed by apple tart and vanilla ice cream, that it. You might have to do like goldilocks after it and have a snooze.
Palate: Candied apple, warm spices, pepper, orange peel, apricots, cloves, ginger nut biscuits.
Finish: Warm dry spices that linger on the tongue and waters in the mouth.
