Very informative, was wondering why is was changed from "Pure Pot still" to "single pot still." tag:www.irishwhiskeyblog.com,2011-12-10:13733559 Mike Horton 2011-12-10T05:13:39Z 2011-12-10T05:13:39Z Hey Rich - I bought my son Jason and myself a round of the Bushmills 16 a couple weeks ago. We were in Dallas with Jason's new fiance celebrating their recent engagement. All I can say is "fan-damn-tastic!" I really don't know if that's a word, but if it isn't, it should be. In my limited experience, that is the best glass of Irish whiskey I've ever had. Granted I've only tried a few since discovering this evil little preoccupation, but so far that's my favorite. <br /><br />Second on my limited list is the Tullamore Dew 10 that Dad (Jim) recommended. That bottle still calls to me at the most random times. It's just good.<br /><br />My most recent taste is the Black Bush. Just picked that up tonight for no good reason. That one surprised me. It's good... I like it... but it did knock me back a couple feet on first taste. I was expecting something different, maybe smoother. After I got over my shock and sipped it for a while, it started to grow on me. Again, I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about here, but this one has to be the "loudest" of the small group I own. It's really full of flavor and what I imagine you mean by "character." One thing is certain, you definitely know you're drinking whiskey with this one. Good whiskey at that. tag:www.irishwhiskeyblog.com,2011-12-01:13424164 Chad 2011-12-02T02:40:02Z 2011-12-02T02:40:02Z Just picked up a bottle at a Bevmo Store in Northern California (Emeryville) on a colleagues recommendation (he went to ireland many years ago and has since worked his memory of it into just about every drinking conversation we've had since)<br /><br />It's warming my belly right now! Very nice, smooth and clean, but I can see how more experienced drinkers would want something with more distinct flavor... personally I think it's the perfect irish blend. Seems to get smoother with each sip! tag:www.irishwhiskeyblog.com,2011-11-05:12650419 Karl bonar http://Kab-oom.com 2011-11-05T20:20:35Z 2011-11-05T20:20:35Z Good list. Up in Toronto they also have red breast 15 years. Delicious stuff.<br />So, separate question and couldn't see contact info for you. I was at an Irish fund dinner last night and won a bottle of very rare Irish whiskey called rourkes. Apparently it's dated around 1908 and worth about $5,000. Picture here: kab-oom.com<br />I can't seem to find any info on it anywhere online but wondered if you or any of your buddies might know anything.<br />Cheers,<br /><br />Kb tag:www.irishwhiskeyblog.com,2011-10-16:12198310 Barry Shannahan 2011-10-16T13:15:35Z 2011-10-16T13:15:35Z We have Millar's here in Michigan, both the blend and Single malt. tag:www.irishwhiskeyblog.com,2011-10-15:12186608 David http://www.irishwhiskeynotes.com/ 2011-10-15T11:46:04Z 2011-10-15T11:46:04Z <span> </span> <span> </span>Great list! I wouldn't be surprised to see another single cask from the CWS before year's end (it wouldn't be Christmas otherwise).<br /> <br /> You've said before on this blog that Green Spot changed with the repackaging but I checked that with an IDL guy who knows the score and he said it hasn't. Someone asked the same question at our recent Pot Still tasting with Liam Donegan. Again, the answer was "definitely not". tag:www.irishwhiskeyblog.com,2011-10-14:12162533 Larry Patterson 2011-10-15T01:33:37Z 2011-10-15T01:33:37Z john l. sullivan has a ten yr. whiskey, just saw it today at my liquor store.
