Irish whiskey is Irish whiskey am I right? no, ok maybe but the general take is from Redbreast to Bushmills you can find an Irish whiskey that is approachable, easy to enjoy and maybe even a tasty treat. I'm no Irish whiskey expert but I certainly enjoy the Irish whiskey experience from a "highlanders pov" so "my Island" and such to the experts and blarney stones and haggis for all . As I was about to pick up that pint of Jamey I thought you know what lets give this Paddy's a whirl. Here's to the joy of trying something new. Not only is Paddys NOT rot gut, cheap swill, it actually flys the green white and orange proudly. I'm almost amazed how absolutely smooth it is and while maybe not as lusty as a pricey bottle of ole Irish it still comes through with the quality of a nice malt and toast spirit with a sweet warm character and only the mildest of a burning tinge.
At only a half to 2/3s of the price of the familiar green or square bottles, Paddy's stands up for itself in a bit of a proud Irish, "toe the line", tradition, maybe not a fantastic bottle, but nothing to be ashamed of either, it's a great value Irish whiskey, worthy of the genre. For a cheap bottle of "mud in yer eye" you could do far far worse. Cheers!
