Tullamore Dew Phoenix 1829 Limited Edition 0,5L 46,2%

Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey Phoenix 1829 Limited Edition 0.5L 55%

Tullamore DEW distillery is named after its founder Daniel E. Williams (hence DEW). He worked his way up from stable boy to owner. It is thanks to him that the distillery got electricity and motorized cars and created the whisky with its unmistakable character.

His grandson Desmond inherited his courage and determination and revolutionized whisky production by introducing blended whisky.

The power of three

Since the beginning, this special number has been indispensable. This refers to three points in the production process that cannot be done without:

- the use of three types of grain

- triple distillation

And

- the marriage of three different types of whisky: single malt, grain whisky and single pot still whisky.

Tullamore Dew Phoenix Limited Edition

What is also special is that Tullamore Dew Phoenix is bottled at 55% ABV.

Dew Phoenix is intended to commemorate a terrible disaster and the resulting solidarity of the community of Tullamore. In 1785 there was a devastating hot air balloon crash which started a fire that destroyed the entire town. What the fire could not destroy: the solidarity and courage of the residents. They rebuilt the town completely. Since this disaster, a phoenix has appeared on the town's coat of arms as a constant reminder of this. The reconstruction of the city led to the founding of the Tullamore DEW distillery in 1829, and so this number in the name stands for the year the distillery was founded. Tasting notes

On the nose, typical malt notes that you would expect from Tullamore. But also vanilla and toffee notes that go perfectly with roasted wood and sherry.

The higher alcohol content leaves a spicy pot still taste on the palate. If you add a little water, sweet toffee and floral notes appear that combine with oak tannins.

Due to the maturation in Oloroso sherry casks, the whisky has a distinctive aroma: spicy and with a slight sweetness, it hits the nail on the head. Caramel notes and fine sherry tones characterize the taste.
