About Tullamore Dew

Tullamore Dew is an Irish whiskey with complex flavours. The complex flavours mean that two mouthfuls of, for example, "Tullamore Dew 10 year reserve, 40%", which is triple distilled, will not necessarily be identical.

You will keep tasting new nuances, but every sip still holds the same fullness, character and maturity that characterise Tullamore Dew Irish whiskey. You can find a range of Tullamore Dew products at Whisky.dk, all of which will give you a sophisticated drinking experience. The combination of the sweet and the strong makes a rounded whiskey that you are sure to enjoy.

Tips for your Irish Legend

The egg white gives the drink a soft foam. That is why the recipe is first shaken without ice and then hard with ice. Pour the blackberry liqueur in slowly at the end, so it settles as a layer at the bottom. If you do not like raw egg white you can leave it out, but then the drink loses its foam.

My verdict on Irish Legend

It is a soft and fruity drink for those who find a whisky sour a little too sour. Amaretto and apple make it round, and the blackberry liqueur gives a dark, sweet layer at the end. It needs a few more bottles, but it looks good when served.

We do not know of any documented history behind the drink itself.
