Known locally as ‘the place of the lush grass’ Sheestown is a rolling, lowland terroir of well-drained loamy soil where Phillip O’Brien has farmed the land for half a century.

Head Distiller’s Observations:

Appearance: Golden with oils that grip the glass like its life depended on it.

Nose: Malty, honey, fruit cake, pears, sherry trifle, cookie dough, a summer hay note, orange peel and an earthy note.

Taste: Spices and clove that gently warms then dries;  blood oranges, honeycomb, barley sugar and ginger.

Finish: Long with a gentle spice and citrus that tingles.
