Jameson 18yr Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

95WE Top 50 93BTI

As “the master blender’s special selection of very old Jameson Irish Whiskey,” this bottling represents. Rich honey color, tropical fruit scent with a touch of thick caramel. The flavors are bright and vibrant—lychee, banana, orange peel, tempered by a wash of honey—and the finish is intriguing and dry with nuances of white chocolate, banana, leather and nutmeg. Beautiful.

Amber color. Rich aromas of toasted coconut, fig jam, cherry cordial, and spiced caramelized nuts follow through on a rich entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-full body with great depth and vibrancy. Finishes with a captivating wave of spices, melon, dried tropical fruit, and toasted grain. Deliciously youthful and vital.

Jameson Black Barrel Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

94WE Top 50

Like a liquid (if boozy) apple pie, this blended whiskey offers bold, rich aromatics, with lots of dried and stewed fruit flavors and butterscotch. The drawn-out finish incorporates touches of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and even a mouthwatering sprinkle of salt.

Bushmills Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Bushmills, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

90WE 90BTI

Light and easy-sipping, this light-gold whiskey has a grassy, slightly vegetal aroma, with a hint of Granny Smith apple. Look for vanilla and honey flavors, with a bit of cinnamon sizzle on the finish.

90 points, Wine Enthusiast (Mar 2014)

Golden amber color. Wet clay, grain husk, and cocoa aromas with a soft, spry, dryish light-to-medium body and a delicate pencil shaving, cream, hay and pepper accented finish. An excellent everyday tipple.

Concannon Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Cooley Peninsula, County Louth, Ireland

93TP

This amber-honey hued beauty may be young -- in fact, a light astringency proves it. But be patient and the salted butterscotch nose leads to pretty paths of white cake and almonds. From the first pass and throughout, white roses appear to fold into gingerbread. Parchment scent and flavor evolves into spiced apple, finishing with a peppered orange marmalade. Made at the Cooley Distillery.

Writers' Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Ireland

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Ireland

95WE

This honey-hued whiskey is aged in Bourbon barrels, then finished in oloroso Sherry casks. The overall effect is bold and mouthwatering, and yields flavors of almond, vanilla and pecan accented by clove and black pepper.

Bushmills Black Bush Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Bushmills, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

96WE Top 50

This elegant, super-soft sipper is a blend of grain whiskey and malt whiskey that was finished in oloroso Sherry casks—the emphasis on the latter. The Sherry influence shows in the baked apple and dried apricot flavors that round into caramel and butterscotch tones on the finish.

Bushmills 21yr Single Malt Rare Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Bushmills, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

93WE

This aged spirit shows Irish whiskey's dark side. It retains the enticing fresh-fruit aroma of younger bottlings, plus a luscious layer of butterscotch. On the palate, it's oaky and drying, with complex notes of toffee, dark chocolate, toasted nuts, caramel and a spicy finish. The whiskey is aged for a minimum of 19 years in former oloroso Sherry and Bourbon barrels, then transferred to Madeira casks for the final two years of maturation. Treat it like Scotch: add just a splash of water to open up the flavors.

Paddy's Old Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

Bushmills 10yr Single Irish Malt (750ml)

From Bushmills, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

92WE

Though it's a workhorse whiskey, it's still full of surprises. The sweet, bright aromas of honey, vanilla and pear and the velvety feel belie the rich, bold salted-butterscotch umami on the palate.

Redbreast 15yr Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

92WHA

Redbreast 12 year old is a classic pure pot still Irish whiskey; where can you go from there? This new 15 year old expression is more muscular (bottling at 46% and not chill filtering certainly helps), but there are trade-offs. It’s a bit closed on the nose (like a great Bordeaux wine that’s too young). I do enjoy the silky/oily texture, the bold resinous oak spice grip on the finish, and the rich nutty toffee, fig, black raspberry, chocolaty, chewy nougat throughout the palate. Still, it’s not as eminently drinkable, refined, or balanced as the 12 year old.

Redbreast 12yr Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

96WHA

Very elegant, complex, and stylish. Honeyed and silky in texture, with toffee, toasted marshmallow, nougat, maple syrup, banana bread, and a hint of toasted coconut. Bright fruit and golden raisin blend in nicely with the layers of sweetness. Impeccable balance and very approachable. Classic Irish whiskey!

Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Tullamore, County Offaly, Ireland

87WE

Bright yellow-gold, with a light vanilla aroma and flavor and soft, light feel. This blended whiskey is malleable and versatile, and best with some dilution and sweetness added, such as in a cocktail with a splash of vermouth or built tall with ginger ale.

Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

The Sexton Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Ireland

90WE

Within the squat, hexagonal-shaped bottle, this tawny whiskey is scented boldly with baked pear, vanilla and honey. The smooth, oak-forward palate suggests a Bourbon-like profile, finishing long with lots of honey, plus echoes of nutmeg, clove and lemon peel. Finished in oloroso Sherry casks.

Powers Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From County Antrim, Ireland

91WHA

After being around for about a decade, it’s nice to see this whiskey finally being sold in the U.S. Soft, sweet, and silky smooth, with creamy vanilla, caramel, toasted marshmallow, and honey-kissed tropical fruit (mango, pineapple, coconut). I get most of the barley on the front of the palate, with the grain whiskey components more on the finish. Something seems slightly missing for me to elevate this whiskey to classic status (some more pot still character, perhaps?), but it’s still a wonderful blended Irish whiskey, and so drinkable. Gather a bunch of friends and throw away the cork!

Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Dublin, Leinster, Ireland

91BTI 88WHA

Golden color. Aromas of sweet creamy nougat and honey buttered raisin scone with a silky, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a creamy caramel, peppery, dusty grain, mineral nuanced finish. A delicious, elegant, and well balanced Irish whiskey.

91 points, Beverage Testing Institute (May 2013)

The first conventional release from this fledgling company. Irish whiskey's equivalent to a seemingly frothy sweet pop song, which on closer inspection has barbed and cutting lyrics. It's a sweet Irish blend and seems like it. But it has a high malt content, is packed with flavor, and it easily justifies its price. It's creamy and rich with toffee notes, there's some tropical fruit and delicious rum-and-raisin milk chocolate. Not too cloying despite the sweetness, either.

Connemara Peated Single Malt Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Kilbeggan, County Westmeath, Ireland

92WE 90BTI

Smoke bomb alert! Imbibers who love a peaty profile will enjoy this smoky-but-smooth single malt. Pair with assertive flavors, like sausages or charcuterie.

92 points, Wine Enthusiast (Mar 2011)

Old gold color. Aromas of charred nuts, toffee, and fruit pastry with a silky, dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body and a honey cream, roasted grain, white cigar ash, pepper, and grass driven finish. A lovely, lightly smoky, sipping Irish whiskey with lots of subtlety. The smokiness has been greatly dialed back from previous bottlings.

Redbreast 12yr Cask Strength Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

2022 Midleton Very Rare Vintage Release Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

92WHA

Baked pastries drizzled with honey, vanilla fudge, fresh florals, gentle wood spices, ripe peach, white pepper, and well-rounded toasted oak aromas. The sweet grain elements are particularly delightful on this year’s release, the 39th in the series. The palate is front-loaded with spicy fruits, the pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg wrapped around flavors of mandarin, banana, red apple, and melon. Disentangled, a creamy vanilla richness remains, bolstered by oak and wood spices.

Powers John's Lane Release 12yr Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From County Antrim, Ireland

94WHA

Wow! Could this be the greatest comeback since Rocky climbed back in the ring and showed the young upstarts who was the boss? It’s taken Irish Distillers a long time to respond to the pounding it’s taken from Cooley but it’s back in the ring with two wonderful pot still whiskeys. This is the better of the two, a whopping oily, woody package of classic pot still Irishness. The green fruits tumble over tannin and spice like frisky puppies.

Jameson Caskmates Stout Edition Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

91WE Top 100

Beer lovers will enjoy this Irish whiskey aged in craft beer barrels. It appears burnished gold and smells oaky and grainy. The flavor evokes a pleasing combination of beer and whiskey, accented with hops, bitter chocolate and a clove-spiced finish. It even feels slightly fizzy, like the carbonation of beer.

Slane Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Slane, Leinster, Ireland

92WE 90WHA

An easy, elegant sipper, look for a gentle vanilla-caramel-almond profile on the nose and palate as well as a silky feel. Mild baked pear and dried apricot midpalate wind into a cinnamon and clove finish. Sip or mix.

92 points, Kara Newman, Wine Enthusiast (Mar 2017)

Brown-Forman deployed a triple-cask finishing process on mature sourced whiskeys, involving virgin oak, refill, and sherry casks. A lovely fruity complexity ensues, with blackberry, apple-toffee notes, malt, vanilla, and sherry influences. Butterscotch with nutty undertones, herbal notes verging toward spicy, and hints of dried apple, red berries, and a touch of leather roll into the finish. You want complexity, intrigue, and flavor for thirty bucks? Look no further.

Bushmills 16yr Single Irish Malt (750ml)

From Bushmills, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

96-100WE 95BTI

The smashing bouquet features delightful notes of toasted wheat bread, oatmeal, black raisins, trail mix, roasted chestnuts, bacon fat, sweet butter, ruby Port and prunes. Entry is peppery, moderately sweet and smoky; midpalate features succulent tastes of dark chocolate-covered cherries and strawberries, honey and smoked nuts. Finishes elegantly and clean, with deft traces of smoke and cocoa.

96-100 points, Wine Enthusiast (Dec 2008)

Rich amber color. Aromas of salty caramelized roasted nuts, custard, dried tropical fruits, and cocoa with a silky dryish medium-to-full body and a rich melange of dried fruits and berries, dusty grain, gravel, honeycomb, and peppery spices. Impressively rich and satisfying.

95 points, Beverage Testing Institute (May 2011)

Red Spot 15yr Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Dublin, Leinster, Ireland

92BTI 91WHA

Amber color. Aromas and flavors of leather, sherry, marcona almonds, dark chocolate, and dried cherries with a satiny, vibrant, dryish medium-to-full body and a tingling, intricate, long finish that exhibits elements of ground cinnamon, allspice, ginger cakes, mint, and clove. A complex and brooding Irish Single Pot Still Whiskey that explodes on the palate with a symphony of spices.

92 points, Beverage Testing Institute (Jun 2021)

A heart of pot still spices, but this has oodles of complexity and depth with concentrated autumnal flavors of apple and blackberry cooked with brown sugar, then morello cherry, hazelnut, allspice, aged tobacco leaf, and worn leather. Mellow dark-toffee sweetness and cooked fruits carry the cinnamon and peppercorn, oak, and leather into a tongue-pounding finish. A slap in the chops—just what you want from a pot still whiskey.

Redbreast Pedro Ximenez Single Pot Still Sherry Cask Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Midleton, County Cork, Ireland

Teeling Single Grain Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Dublin, Leinster, Ireland

89BTI

Brass color with an orange cast. Aromas of cooking porridge, caramel rice cake, and toasted raisin nut bread with a soft, dryish medium body and a honeyed whole grain, white peppercorn, gravel, and glued wood accented finish. Try with seafood.

Yellow Spot Irish Whiskey (750ml)

From Dublin, Leinster, Ireland

91WHA

After last year's pot still triple whammy from Irish Distillers, we couldn't expect any more, could we? Could we? Step forward Yellow Spot, which seems to hold the view that if you can't beat 'em, don't get in the ring; go and pick a fight somewhere else. The pot still green apple and nutmeg notes are there on the nose and palate, but the nose also has vanilla and marzipan. On the palate the whiskey trips off to Speyside with sweetness, citrus zest, and pepper. Another game changer.
