Irish Whiskey

Irish Whiskey

Always whiskey with an ‘e’, its name implies the country of its origin. Irish whiskey is usually distilled three times, in huge pot stills, from cereals. The different brands of Irish malts are as individual as straight malt scotch, and it is matured for at least 7 years. Some people find Irish whiskey gentler in character than straight malt. The Irish claim, with some reason, that their spirit was evolved before Scotch; the know-how of distilling was probably brought to Scotland by monks from Ireland.
