The Quiet Man Imperial Stout Finish is a unique Irish whiskey that undergoes a secondary maturation in Imperial Stout beer casks, adding rich malt, chocolate, and roasted coffee notes to its smooth character. This expression builds on The Quiet Man’s signature bourbon cask aging but gains depth and complexity from the stout barrels, delivering a creamy, malty, and subtly hoppy profile. Bottled at 43% ABV, it offers a bolder experience than the standard Quiet Man releases.
Nose: Aromas of dark chocolate, roasted coffee, caramel, and vanilla, with hints of toasted malt and hazelnut.
Palate: Creamy and rich, featuring flavours of espresso, dark toffee, spiced oak, and cocoa, balanced by a subtle hop bitterness and malt sweetness.
Finish: Long and smooth, with lingering notes of mocha, oak spice, and a touch of roasted barley.
The chocolate, coffee, and malt notes from the stout cask finish pair best with a medium-to-full-bodied cigar, enhancing the whiskey’s roasted and creamy character.
Padron 1964 Anniversary Maduro – A full-bodied Nicaraguan cigar with dark cocoa, espresso, and earthy spice, complementing the whiskey’s deep roasted flavours.
Rocky Patel Sun Grown Maduro – A rich and bold cigar with sweet molasses, black pepper, and dark chocolate, balancing the whiskey’s malt sweetness.
Liga Privada No. 9 – A complex, medium-to-full-bodied cigar with leathery, coffee, and spice notes, enhancing the whiskey’s depth and stout-like qualities.
