For the low price (tasted only a few pours from a 50ml bottle) this is a phenomenal price-to-value Irish whiskey, far surpassing Jameson which tastes too charred and harsh for me. The sweetness and some complexity of the multiple barrels gives it a distinctive and sweet character. I also like the Sexton ($30/750 ml in Michigan) far better than Jameson. Jameson seems to be the Budweiser and the Glen Livet of Irish whiskeys: VERY well marketed but generally harsh and unpleasant to drink.

I picked up a couple of shots of this to try as well. Amazing, far exceeds the bland Jameson's.
