Product description
The history of Glendalough dates back to the year 518, when Saint Kevin retreated into the Irish wilderness where he lived for seven long years. According to legend, he stood in the water for 13 days and 13 nights with blackbird eggs in his hands until the chicks hatched. He stayed there for another 13 days until they fledged. Saint Kevin is depicted in the pose on the bottles of Glendalough. This bottling has been post-matured in a Madeira cask, giving it a full-bodied, vinous appearance. The cask number supplied may differ from our photo.

The Distillery: Glendalough
Glendalough means 'Valley of the Two Lakes' in Gaelic. The valley is also called the Garden of Ireland and is located in the Wicklow Mountains south of Dublin. It was here that five friends founded Ireland's first craft distillery. Glendalough is also known for its 6th century monastic settlement. This was founded by the legendary monk and hermit St Kevin, whose story also inspired the distillery founders and whose figure adorns the Glendalough bottles.

Kommentar: Boa! - ist der lecker! - Typisch Ire: man riecht nur wenig. Im Geschmack fehlt mir ein Tasticon für "Butter". Ich schmecke "Butter"... - aber nicht aufdringlich...
Süß ist er, Honig, Vanille, vielleicht auch Pflaumen... - aber eben auch Butter!
Das PLV ist hier m.E. sehr gut.
