Description
This one-of-a-kind black liqueur is a "you have to try it to believe it" find that perfectly bridges the gap between a stout and a whiskey. Inspired by the legendary Irish jockey Shanky and his ostrich chariot, it captures the rich, creamy essence of an Irish cream without a single drop of dairy. It is crafted in County Cavan using a blend of aged pot still whiskey and natural vanilla, making it an incredibly smooth, decadent treat for those who want all the indulgence of a dessert without the burn of a traditional spirit. This is the perfect bottle to share with friends who enjoy a sweet, laid-back sipper that breaks all the rules.
