Theatrical Presentation: The "Book" design makes it a standout gift that looks beautiful on a shelf or home bar, requiring no additional gift wrapping.
Premium "Vatted" Spirits: Every miniature in the set contains zero grain whiskey, staying true to the traditional 19th-century Irish whiskey style.

Whiskeys Included:
Writers' Tears Copper Pot: The flagship blend of Pot Still and Malt.
Writers' Tears Double Oak: Aged in both American and French Oak casks.
Writers' Tears Cask Strength (2020 Release): High-intensity, limited-edition bottling.
Writers' Tears Copper Pot (40% ABV): The heart of the range, offering notes of apple, vanilla, and honeyed spice.
Writers' Tears Double Oak (46% ABV): A marriage of American and French Oak that introduces deeper notes of cinnamon, chocolate, and dark berry fruit.
Writers' Tears Cask Strength 2020 (54.5% ABV): A powerful, full-bodied expression with concentrated notes of ginger, butterscotch, and toasted oak.
To get the most out of this tasting set, we recommend a "vertical tasting" approach:
The Flight: Pour each 5cl sample into a separate tulip-shaped whiskey glass.
Compare and Contrast: Start with the Copper Pot to establish the base profile, move to the Double Oak to taste the influence of French oak, and finish with the Cask Strength.
A Drop of Water: Add a tiny drop of distilled water to the Cask Strength expression to open up the complex aromas and soften the initial heat.
