Ballykeefe is an entirely independent, artisan, family-owned Single Estate Whiskey Distillery, which was built in 2016 to diversify a working family farm for successor generations. The nose is intense, but gentle with real depth and character, with powerful notes of warm caramel, firm oak vanilla, malt cereal and a small hint of coconut. The taste at first has a burst of orange peel and dark chocolate mid tongue. Then a surge of spice with notes of liquorice, cloves, cardamom and a hint of soothing menthol oil in the background. A small splash of water calmed the cask strength fire and enhanced the luscious mouthfeel. There is a long slow burning finish dominated by cloved oranges and aniseed.
