Born in Dublin, and raised in Dundalk, Pearse Lyons comes from a lengthy line of ancestry involved in the brewing and distilling business. Lyons hailed from five generations of Irish coopers, on his mother’s side. Dunne’s Cooperage was in Smithfield, Dublin 7 and made barrels for distilleries and breweries across Ireland. Margaret Dunne, daughter of Robert Dunne, was the first registered female cooper in Ireland.
Description
A blended Irish Whiskey aged in all Bourbon barrels that is a grain and malt blend. This Whiskey has malt whiskey in it that has been produced on the stills that are now in place at Pearse Lyons Distillery at St. James. On the nose this is a relaxing whiskey with a slightly citrus note and a subtle wisp of smoke. It has mellow malt tones and has an aroma of light honey fruits with floral notes. This whiskey has a light, smooth and easy taste with a hint of spearmint that warms to hints of semi-sweet chocolate, light oak wood, creamy vanilla and light caramel. It has a mild malt character, is well balanced and finishes with a crisp smooth spice. Pearse Lyons Distillery Orignal bottles Never to be seen again.
