Mad March Hare Irish Poitín is produced using locally sourced malted barley and triple-distilled in small copper pot stills. The spirit is cut with Irish spring water and bottled at 40% ABV.
The palate is gentler than that lead-up would indicate, with notes of fresh, sweet cereal — almost like kettle corn — plus a smattering of much more gentle fruit notes that lead to a slightly leathery finish. It’s a sweet relief from a somewhat off-putting nose, but again, such is the world of poitin.
