Picked up a bottle of Jameson Black Label today. It was a little rough until I added a little water. Is there a better Irish whisky out there?

I enjoy Jameson, Bushmills & Knappogue Castle but Redbreast is tough to beat.

Powers for Irish coffee ... Tullamore Dew for sippin

Irish whiskey is making a huge comeback, so many distilleries about to come online in the next 5 years and a lot of the current ones don’t have enough barrels to sustain current demand so prices keep rising

Having issues with uploading a pic.... but, Green Spot is damn good and if you can find yellow spot it’s even better. It’s a single pot still run and it’s a bonded whiskey

The red breast mentioned above is great, but they make a 15yr old that is wonderful as well.

I prefer the yellow spot over all.

Tully is my everyday drink, but I really enjoy Redbreast.

Spent a week in Dublin last year and none of them will even touch Jameson . The neat thing was that many of the old, established pubs had their own brand of whisky. I pretty much drank Temple Bar out of its 12yr over the course of a few days. I'd love to be able to get it here, probably the smoothest whisky/whiskey I've ever had. If you can get your hands on some Poitin I would highly recommend. It's their version of moonshine, delicious.

Yellow Spot is the truth

Redbreast 12 year cask strength is also amazing

The Irish spell whiskey with an 'e' FYI.

I bought some of this stuff duty free coming home the last time I went to Ireland... it's amazing.




For just an everyday sip, Tullamore Dew is a good bargain.
