The Ennis Whiskey Club have organised a series of Irish Brand Ambassador tastings around Ennis again for 2024. Our February event was the Fercullen Whiskey range from Powerscourt Distillery presented by Alan Malone.
Alan treated us to a pre-tasting drink, a Fercullen Fall - a refreshing pour of their flagship Fercullen Falls blend topped up with soda water and ice, served with a dried orange ring garish.
The whiskey tasting consisted of 6 whiskeys. Starting with the Fercullen 15 year old Irish Whiskey, it was followed by their own Single Malt, The Estate Series No. 3, The Fercullen 21 year old single malt and their Opus 1 Cask Select. Alan rounded off the night with a 4 year old single malt cask sample at 61.1% abv which spent its last year in a madeira cask.
Everyone was impressed to be leaving with a goodie bag generously provided by Alan and the Powerscourt Distillery team. Thanks guys!
