Dunphys (40%, OB)
Nose: The nose on a glass of Dunphys Irish whiskey is very unbalanced, Most noticeably is the grain, it overpowers and does not allow for any hop or pot still to come through. One will also hint notes of Tar, creosote and a bit of sweet in the nose of this whiskey, but it is still a far cry from finding balance..
Taste: The nose of the whiskey does not deceive, that is evident in your first sips as the grain hits your palate relentlessly. as you let the whiskey wash over you, you will begin to notice some evidence of it's pot still character, but this will not ever achieve an equilibrium.
Finish: Not surprisingly, the finish of this whiskey will leave you with the grain once again. The finish is a long, drawn out one with very little to brag about. The creosote seems to linger back, but that just manages to sour the already unpleasant, and un-yielding finish of this harsh whiskey.
