Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey - 20$
This stuff is SO smooth. I like going to Irish pubs and eating some fish and chips and having a nice Irish whiskey. Tullamore Dew has become my standby Irish whiskey. It is lighter than the scotches I drink. It has a nice little bite to it, and unlike some of the peatier scotches I have it has little to no lingering aftertaste.
I personally don't have a refined palate to be able to tell you hints of X and Y. I like it and it is smooth and has a nice bite that is refreshing but not Bourbon heavy.
I find that I can really drink a lot of this stuff.
ElD - I am going to buy me a new bottle of scotch soon. I am thinking Macallan Cask Strength or Laporaig Quarter Cask. Or do you think I should start off Laporaig drinking with the 10 or 15 instead? I know I can find those, the Quarter Cask might be a bit of a chore.
