    Thanks for all the great content and reviews! As a whisk(e)y neophyte, you have a great way of talking about these bottles that a lot of other creators don't have.

    Japan definitely took to the Highball concept really strongly but it was actually invented in america. Extremely simple drinks, they are essentially the next level of dilution after whiskey on the rocks, being one part whiskey to two parts soda water on ice in a tall glass. Some people use ginger ale or other flavored type sodas, in fact a Jack and coke is technically a Highball.

    • @whiskeyisajourney
      @whiskeyisajourney  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I heard their whiskey was made intentionally to be used in a Highball. Not sure how true that is but it is light and delicate.

    Wow your hard on these I’d have to go with a sip on this one. But it's your palate and your channel. Pricing is certainly higher in Arizona than my state so I can understand your reluctants to repurchase. Enjoy!!

      I didn't dislike it. It's good and my sister obviously liked it more than I did, but based on my current Irish collection I'd rather replace it with a John's Lane 12, non cask strength Redbreast 12, or Green Spot. Cheers!

    • @whiskeyisajourney
      @whiskeyisajourney  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks. I didn't think this is a great representation of "Irish" whiskey due to it being blended and not single pot still or single malt.

    Bought this and the JJ Corry The Gael at the store.
    Egan’s 10 , while a must have for several friends, is a Skip for me but The Gael is a Sip.
    Egan’s isn’t bad just for me nothing special

    As someone that leans toward Irish a lot, I will skip this based on your review. Nose is important to me, and it's expensive.

    I have to say that Irish whiskeys in general strike me like Japanese whiskeys, they are soft and uneventful. I prefer a bolder, punchier flavor. Redbreast 12yr cask strength is the best bang for your buck Irish whiskey in my opinion. Not that my opinion matters much…
