I'm a bourbon guy. Only Irish I've ever had was Jameson and I've no insults to throw at it. Rather enjoy it. But that's an awful small representative sample. I'd try other's if they could be bought in 375's or 50's

I sure like my Jameson.
2 gingers is OK
Camp is where you make it.

Red Breast for sure. Whether it's worth the price is another discussion. Bushmills Black is the sweet spot.

Regular Jamison is good; 12 year old Jamison is great.
Then there's everything else.

MM What else have you tried? Regular Jameson is OK. Jameson 12 is pretty good. Jameson doesn't get into great until a tier or two up. Think 18 or Gold Reserve.

I've always been satisfied with Redbrest. I was more satisfied when it was $45 a bottle.

If it's not distilled in Kentucky, it's just a guessing game.
Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.

It’s all good…. if you have enough of it. Or is that once you’ve had enough of it?

Red Breast 12 Cask Strength for me as well. I wince every time I pay for it. And I have been known to add a few drops of water as well.

Lots of good ideas here!
Looks like I've got a lot of "testing" ahead of me! (GRIN!)
That peated Irish Connemara, sounds like a good one to try.
Thanks again for all the feedback!

I actually forgot that there are a few bottles of Gold Reserve stashed in the back of my cabinet. Might have to break one out for Christmas.
