My local wine shop hosted a seminar on Irish Whiskey last night. I've wanted to do something like this for a while so I jumped at the opportunity. What better way to kick of St. Patrick's Day than to sit around sipping whiskey from the Emerald Isle?
We sampled eight different whiskeys (three of which were single malts), an Irish Coffee blend ("Hot Irishman"), and a liqueur ("Celtic Crossing"). My favorite of the night was likely the Irishman Single Malt. I took home a bottle of their blended whiskey for making mixed drinks.
