I picked up a bottle of Bushmills 21 to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day this year and it completely changed my perception of Irish whiskey. Jameson was ‘meh’ and Redbreast 12 was a good step in the right direction. However, with this stuff, I think I may have arrived. A wonderful single malt!

The Bushmills 21 is excellent! I had the Bushmills 10 last night and it was solid. I prefer Jameson 12, Powers 12 and Redbreast though.

Hi there to and before i began Merry Xmas to all. This for me has been a great review of Whiskeys right down to Flavours. I have Visited the Talisker tourist center twice and both times i have come away with the bottle of ten year old with the smokey taste its a really nice Whiskey and for me my favourite. If i could only find a place in Cork here in Ireland that has it in stock i would glady stock in . If any one knows the answer please tell me. Thank you again for a great review from Pat Thompson.

I love the Talisker 10! Excellent single malt and one of the best!
I’m not sure where you can buy it in Ireland but it has to be somewhere. Try to find it online, there has to be somewhere that will ship it to you.
If you can’t find the Talisker 10, Try the Macallan 10. It’s very comparable and slightly less smoky.

Powers Irish Whiskey reminds me of a Family Guy episode regarding a
Samuel Adams commerical. Nuff Said!

I like my Jamison. If u want authentic Irish, go to Pearl River NY into one of many Irish pubs and ask For the stuff that the locals drink. I lived there for 2 years and Irish whiskey was my chaser of. Choice, needless to say I still am not blind!
