I hope to have a crack at it this weekend. The "70" and Single Malt are very well regarded here. And while I have not tried the Hot Irishman, i had my first sample of the Irishman Irish Cream at a local liquor store recently. I'm not usually a sweet drinker, but I was impressed with it. It did not have any of the cloying, syrupy sweetness as in other Irish creams. It tasted, well, real, authentic, or more natural.&nbsp; I'm hoping to take a closer look at that category very soon.<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Rich <br> tag:irishwhiskeyblog.com,2010-03-11:2903049 Rich Nagle 2010-03-12T01:19:46Z 2010-03-12T01:19:46Z Barry, that sounds wonderful and is a great example of what I mean when I say that's although it's about the whiskey, it's NOT about the whiskey. It's about whiskey as a communion, a connection between family, friends and future friends.&nbsp; Gotta love it.

The proprietor at the 2nd site, good Irish fella by the name of Bill Quinn, stood me to a few drinks of his very impressive selection of Irish whiskeys (to include the ONLY bottle of Greenore 8 year old I have ever seen offered at any pub) that were lined up behind his bar when I visited in October for my daughter's 21rst b'day, which also happened to coincide with a gig for the boys. At any rate, I intend to take with me the bottle of Paddy's that I mentioned in a facebook post a couple weeks ago to you, as well as my bottle of Green Spot and my 15 year old Greenore. We shoud have a grand time, I'm thinking! tag:irishwhiskeyblog.com,2010-03-10:2899574 Mike Ryan 2010-03-10T23:42:29Z 2010-03-10T23:42:29Z Greetings Rich, from San Diego.<br> <br>I read your intro and enjoyed some other articles on some of my favorites. I found this blog while searching for Irish Whiskey tasting ideas for a tasting I am holding for some pre-St Paddy's fun this Saturday. Though my family enjoys Irish Whiskey as a normal practice I have never held a tasting. We made a list of decent Irish Whiskeys (decent as we can be this far west) and each couple is bringing a different bottle. Any suggestions or ideas for an amateur Irish Whiskey tasting? <br> <br>Mike Ryan tag:irishwhiskeyblog.com,2010-03-09:2896667 Rich Nagle 2010-03-09T23:30:37Z 2010-03-09T23:30:37Z St. Peters, MO/Greater St. Louis area, right?&nbsp; Can anybody help Steve out?<br><br><br> tag:irishwhiskeyblog.com,2010-03-09:2896551 Steve 2010-03-09T22:41:16Z 2010-03-09T22:41:16Z I need a location, I'm desperate for more! tag:irishwhiskeyblog.com,2010-03-09:2895723 Mad About Whiskey http://www.hotirishman.com 2010-03-09T16:22:00Z 2010-03-09T16:22:00Z Delighted to see The Irishman Cask Strength there.
