Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey

[12.16.22] Free trial in Madison on the walk back from the capitol. Sweet downtown liquor store with a nice scotch collection upstairs. My apologies to the women running the tasting as I'm sure I came off a bit brash. You'd think a guy like MacGregor would know better than any not to sell something that tastes like Jameson for 10% more money. Not remotely surprised to learn this is a Guinness collaboration nor that they are generously donating a few $ per case (not per bottle) to a charity. Better than Jameson Black label but still just a simple Irish whiskey. Drinks easy, like water. Barely some barrel flavors or a vanilla or floral hint. But basically this is alcoholic spring water at the same price as Russell's Reserve. Choose wisely. And donate the spare change to your local food bank.

Bitter, 1 dimensional taste. Not worth the price. Should be sold for 50% less (ZAR 175). Total ripoff. Please man!
