Tasting Notes & Experience
Aromas of toasted nuts, marzipan and dark chocolate with a pinch of spice. The palate is smooth and balanced—dried fruits, honeycomb, apricot and lemon zest over gentle oak spice. A lingering, wood-led finish carries honeyed sweetness and a whisper of cocoa.

Craftsmanship & Story
Created by Master Blender Alex Thomas, The Sexton uses only unpeated Irish malted barley for a pure malt profile. Triple distillation in copper pot stills delivers signature Irish smoothness, while carefully selected Oloroso sherry butts add depth, dried-fruit richness and honeyed oak—striking a modern balance of approachability and complexity.
Special Features
100% malted barley, triple-distilled; sherry-cask matured for amplified dried fruit and chocolate tones; natural approachability at 40% ABV; bold hexagonal bottle design that looks as good as it pours—perfect for gifting and back-bar presence.
