Had to do a presentation on Irish Whiskey and this was actually the most interesting piece of information I found. Never knew that the history of Irish whiskey could be this fascinating. Thank you!
ernie hernandez Try it hot in winter - a measure of Bushmills, add enough boiling water to heat the drink to the temperature of a cup of tea and add a couple of cloves (don't forget the teaspoon in the glass to stop it cracking) - if you haven't tried it do so. Also good for a cold. Medicine!
Uniquely Irish..... please tell me that was a joke.....Bourbon is uniquely American, scotch is uniquely Scottish and Irish whiskey is uniquely Irish but whiskey in general is not uniquely Irish.
+Terry Kast -- It WAS uniquely Irish, until another country started making the same type of thing, about 600-700 years ago. If you want to say Ireland was first, fine. That seems to be generally agreed upon. But since Irish monks first started making whisky about 900-1000 years ago, many other countries have followed suit.
Who are you replying to? If your comment was directed at me, I addressed the person who said that "whiskey" is uniquely Irish and said nothing about "Pot Still whiskey."

I personally prefer scotch. But humanity owes the Irish an enormous debt of gratitude for the fact that we have whisky/ey at all. Thank you Ireland!
I am happy that a demand for real Irish whiskey is growing.
That was fascinating. Really enjoyed it.
Bushmills, followed closely by Jamesons' hits the spot for me every time.
+brendan I agree man Bushmills is really yummy and smooth

Brilliant presentation.
Never knew or noticed that Irish was Whiskey and Scottish (spitting on the ground ) is spelt Whisky. So very informative. Thanks
I feel like I travelled from mercury to Pluto and back to earth thrice🙏❤️
What a tradition
Tullamore Dew is my favorite whiskey.
Pot still is the real whiskey.

The Irish invented whiskey, the name comes from the Irish words water of life. So I would call whiskey uniquely Irish first!

He didn't say that,he said "Pot Still" whiskey is uniquely Irish and he is right.
