Obviously this is no Redbreast or Spot whiskey. It is a value priced Irish. Yet, it is a far superior whiskey in both flavor profile and value when compared to the standard uber mass produced and grain whiskey heavy white label varieties from Jameson and Bushmills. Spend the extra $5, you won’t be disappointed.34.99 USD per BottleABC SELECT SPIRITS

Black Barrel contains a significant proportion of pot still whisky (75% from what I’ve heard). Although an NAS whiskey, it puts Bushmills 10 to shame. Beautiful notes of caramel and vanilla sweetness from the bourbon barrels combined with a juicy dark fruit aroma and flavors from the sherry casks. The mouthfeel is surprisingly chewy. My only complaint is from the low abv of 40%. I actually consider it to be my runner-up to Redbreast 12. Excellent value from a truly underrated Irish whiskey!39.99 USD per BottleABC SELECT SPIRITS
