Silkie Midnight Irish Whiskey Bottle 750ml

Experience the captivating complexity of The Midnight Silkie, a masterfully crafted smoky Irish Whiskey from Sliabh Liag Distillers that completes their renowned Silkie collection. This exceptional blend centers around 35% triple-distilled peated malt, artfully combined with five distinct single malts matured in a symphony of casks: sherry, bourbon, oloroso, red wine, virgin oak, and imperial stout. The result is a richly layered spirit offering the ultimate expression of smoke within this distinguished range.

Indulge your senses in its deep aroma: rich muscovado sugar intertwines with evocative pipe smoke, Christmas spices, sandalwood, vibrant orange zest, baked apples, chocolate orange nuances, sweet tobacco, rounded linseed oil, and an earthy base. On the palate, an initial wave of intense molasses sweetness gracefully gives way to a dry peat smoke character. Discover layers of pipe ash, raisins and sultanas simmered with nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves, evolving into notes of toffee apples, toasted drying oak, leathery tobacco – all balanced by a surprising freshness hinting at pine needles and blood oranges or sweet grapefruit. The finish lingers beautifully as sweet spices gently fade, leaving behind a comforting warmth reminiscent of dried fruits beside a gentle peat fire.

Bottled at a robust 46% ABV for full flavor expression, this small batch blended whiskey showcases unparalleled depth and balance between smoke and sweetness.
