Tullamore Dew XO Caribbean Rum Cask Finish [700ML]

Description

Looking for an Irish whiskey that brings Caribbean warmth to your glass without leaving Malaysia?

As a certified spirits specialist at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store, I’m consistently impressed by how Tullamore Dew XO Caribbean Rum Cask Finish bridges two distinct spirits traditions. This Premium Irish whiskey undergoes a distinctive secondary maturation in Caribbean rum casks, creating a tropical complexity that sets it apart from traditional expressions. While the Tullamore Dew 12 Years Triple Distilled offers classic refinement, this XO expression delivers something delightfully unexpected. It’s a fascinating alternative to the Bushmills Caribbean Rum Cask Finish.

• Distillery: Tullamore Dew – Ireland’s pioneering triple-distilled whiskey since 1829
• Region: Irish – renowned for smooth, approachable character with exceptional mixability
• ABV: 40% – perfectly balanced for sipping neat or crafting premium cocktails
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Finished in Demerara and Oloroso sherry casks for rich, layered complexity
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals butterscotch and banana, palate delivers creamy vanilla with spiced rum sweetness, finish lingers with gentle oak and tropical fruit
• Best Served: Neat at room temperature, over a single ice cube, or in an Old Fashioned

Our spirits specialists at Mr. Chow’s Liquor have found this expression particularly versatile for Malaysia’s climate, as the rum cask influence provides natural sweetness without heaviness. After evaluating hundreds of whiskey expressions, this stands out for its approachable complexity at RM 130.
