Latitude Beverage Co. Adds Northcross Irish Whiskey

By March 23, 2023Connecticut, Top News

Northcross Triple Wood Irish Whiskey is non-chill-filtered and bottled, 43% ABV, and matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels, Oloroso sherry casks and virgin American oak.

Latitude Beverage Co. welcomed Northcross Triple Wood Irish Whiskey to Connecticut in time for St. Patrick’s Day. The Irish whiskey import is made from a blend of whiskey, distilled in copper pot stills and matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels, Oloroso sherry casks and virgin American oak. Northcross Triple Wood Irish Whiskey is non-chill-filtered and bottled at 86 proof, 43% ABV, offering aromas of graham cracker and honey. Once sipped, the sweetness of the malt is immediately present with flavors of chocolate syrup and beignets, before giving way to the tastes of creamy butterscotch and lively orange zest. The finish is long and showcases the influence of the sherry maturation with notes of marzipan and dried cherries. Northcross blended Irish whiskey is crafted and matured at Ireland’s Great Northern Distillery in the city of Dundalk in County Louth, located about halfway between Dublin and Belfast. The distillery was founded by Irish whiskey legend John Teeling and is the largest independent distillery in Ireland.
