Fercullen Falls Small Batch

Fercullen Falls Small Batch is an Irish whiskey from Powerscourt Distillery in County Wicklow, named after the Powerscourt waterfall, which at 121 metres is Ireland's tallest. It is a 50/50 blend of malt and grain whiskeys, giving it a high malt content, and it was the first Fercullen release to include malt whiskey distilled at Powerscourt itself.

The malt is matured in first-fill ex-bourbon barrels, while the grain is matured in a mix of ex-bourbon and new heavy char oak casks. Bottled at 43% ABV, it offers cinnamon and fresh orchard fruits on the nose, with brown sugar, toffee and a distinct maltiness. The palate is rich, soft and sweet, with vanilla icing and malt spice, leading to a warming, peppery clove finish of good length. An approachable whiskey for sipping neat or mixing.
