How about good Scotch or Irish Whiskey?

RedLeg0811 · Jan 11, 2006

I didn't know about peaty Irish wishkey as I was told that Scotch was dried with peat and the smoke is aloud to wafe up through barley, but Irish whiskey they kept the Smoke of the peat away from the barley.

That said I think the whisk[e]y production we know in Scotland originated from Ireland. Don't quote me but if I remember correctly the Ireland is where it started then a great loss was suffered (I think maybe it had to do with taxes or a form of prohibition), then it seems like the whisky concept exported itself to Scotland and Ireland never recovered it's former popularity in the marketplace.

I have heard the same thing.

You all are making me thirsty. If anyone is by Seattle there is the Single Scotch malt Whiskey society's tasting March 31. It is 60 different Scotches, 3 nice cigars, and a nice dinner $100.

No one has mentioned Tullamore Dew, yet. Had a couple shots of it a few weeks ago, at a party. Very smooth.....considering I normally drink Old Charter.

$.02, from a forum newb.

Tullamore Dew is good - Red Breast is another fantastic Irish Whiskey

I am working on a Bottle of Connerara peated single malt Irish whisky right now, I like it better than the Tullamore Due & Powers I do sip more Scotch than Irish , but this one is a hit here .
Enjoy, Vince[/quote]
