Irish Whiskeys Ratings and Reviews

Finvara The King's Gambit Irish Whiskey

Mark 5/30/25

I wasn’t aware of this brand before, but took a chance based solely on the gorgeous package. WOW, what a pleasant surprise! Beautiful notes of ginger, vanilla and baking spices with a dark chocolate finish. The non-chill filtering makes it a lot silkier and full-bodied than most other Irish whiskies I’ve tried. Definitely worth a shot

THE BEST IRISH WHISKEY IN THE WORLD!!!

Found out that this whiskey won Best in Class at the San Francisco Spirits Awards so had to try and it lived up to it's award! Definitely worth the price and great for gifting!

Silkie Irish Whiskey

WhiskeyLover 3/25/24

Buttery, soft & smoky

Drinks like somewhere between an Irish and a Scotch. A 92 proof backbone with some fruit forward notes, complimented by buttered popcorn, gingerbread and a hint of sweet soft smoke. Definitely not your average Irish whiskey. Lots to discover in this line.

Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

So smooth prefect taste!! Was just a delight!

The Sexton Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Nice all around whiskey

Sweet nose of dried fruits and honey. The taste is sweet forward with baking spice and I got like a baked apple pie crust with some cinnamon and spice. Gentle warm finish. Will be a regular on my shelf.

Limavady Single Barrel Irish Whiskey

We bought one bottle, liked it, and bought six more!

Green Spot Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Tied for my favorite!

Green Spot is right there with Redbreast 12. Approachable for new whisky drinkers and perfect for those of us who want an exceptional dram in the evening without breaking the bank.

Top marks.

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey

This whiskey is by far the best Irish I’ve had especially at this price. Very smooth sipping, tasty irish.

Silkie Dark Irish Whiskey

Drinks like an expensive smoky bourbon!

Got this as a present this past Christmas and it’s my new favorite. It’s very soft for 92 proof, with a slow comforting burn. Best enjoyed neat, but stands up well in a cocktail, drinks and plays like a smoky bourbon and the non-chill filter aspect provides a lucious silky mouthfeel. Slainte!

Redbreast 12 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Excellent choice for any palate

Redbreast was highly recommended to me by a very knowledgeable employee of a store in Indiana.
It is my favorite based on body, taste and aftertaste. Every one in my circle who has tried this whiskey positively remarks about it. It is a very unique winner.

Proclamation Blended Irish Whiskey

I very nice sipping Irish whiskey at a great price! This is wonderful neat or even with a little water or an ice cube, very pleasant on the nose, and has a smooth fruity or caramel finish. If you want to try something new, try Proclamation!

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey

No way this is a sub-$30 whiskey! This one would be a deal at twice the price, very smooth, and has great flavor!

Writers' Tears Copper Pot Irish Whiskey

Smooooooth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

This is one of my favorites for sure, very smooth at the start and finish, lovely nose, and is a real treat after a long day! Go for it!

Bushmills 10 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Great Bang for the Buck!

This is a great sipping whiskey, just an ounce or two in a glass and you are good to go. Smooth right down to the finish, it has a nice honey vanilla flavor that stays on the palate, just darn good!

The Irishman Small Batch Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Strong Contender With A Nice Price

I must admit, I enjoy the products marketed by this distiller! I really have never had a clinker and this one is sure to please, I think it punches above its price, has a nice nose of fruit and caramel, and then finishes with a smooth burn. A little splash of water or a single ice cube is a nice addition and helps smooth this even more. Go for it!

Drumshanbo Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

A Nice Sip After a Long Day

Well, I would say this is a very nice whiskey, one to stock in your bar. I was not familiar with this one so picked up a bottle, and I am very happy! I think the Sherry cask finish really rounds this one out and makes it a comfortable, cozy sip on a cold winter night. It may be a TAD overpriced compared to others that are just as tasty for less, but you should be happy if you purchase a bottle.

Yellow Spot 12 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Oh yes! This a fantastic Irish whiskey that is worth every penny! It is one to be sipped neat, maybe add a few drops of filtered water to open it up, but even that is not really necessary, Put an ounce or two into your glass, sit back by the fire, and just relax!

Clonakilty Single Batch Double Oak Finish Irish Whiskey

This is a nice, easy-drinking Irish whiskey, that has a very pleasant nose and a smooth finish. If you are new to Irish whiskey this is a good way to get started, but others may prefer something with a bit more punch.

Jameson Original Irish Whiskey (1.75L)

Love the taste both orange and regular. Smooth and easy. Helps me wind down.

Jameson Original Irish Whiskey

My favorite whiskey, by far! I may try others for tasting, but I always come back to Jameson.

Bushmills 12 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Re-order! Always on my bar!

Preparing Autumn/Christmas Eggnog! A good amount of This and A pint of Cognac make my neighborhood a Happy Frstival!

West Cork Barrel Proof Irish Whiskey

Jonathan 10/31/23

Awesome flavor…then BOOM!!

This whiskey is amazing on the front end. Light, caramel, smooth. Yummy. Just smelling it is great…but on the back end you will get a SERIOUS burn. 124 PROOF kicks in. Not super good for sipping (‘les you love the burn). But I still enjoy this whiskey a lot.

McConnell's Irish Whisky

Decoy8372 10/6/23

Good value. Good whiskey. Tasting notes as described. Originally tried because that is my last name so had to get a bottle. Since ordered a few more!

Jameson Black Barrel Irish Whiskey

Good flavor, good price, can’t go wrong with that

I’m using this bottle to make my occasional Irish coffee and it is standing up perfectly with all the flavors. I’ll probably buy another bottle once I finish the one I got.

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey

Fantastic for the Price

Awesome taste, smooth on the rocks. At $23, you can't find a better performing whiskey!

Midleton Very Rare 2022 Irish Whiskey

This is the smoothest whiskey ever.

This whiskey is smooth with hints of vanilla. My favorite Irish whiskey!

Slane Triple Casked Irish Whiskey (1L)

Glendalough Poitin Mountain Strength

Smoother than expected

After some research prior to ordering, we were pleasantly surprised by the smooth finish to this beverage.
It has a powerful presence to the nose up front and in the initial taste, but the finish is quite nice and if you're not careful can provide a false sense of security if you get too comfortable with it. It does not take much to pack a punch.
The flavor does not come off as Whiskey, Vodka or Tequila, it seems to stand on it's own as a spirit, or a combination of the aforementioned three.

Will definitely purchase again. If we can locate it in stock.

Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey

A reliable whiskey with no fanfare. Tastes original and stands up to more expensive brands. Enjoyable. Will buy it again.

Writers' Tears Double Oak Blended Irish Whiskey

Best Value Irish Whiskey That Tastes Amazing

My new favorite drink. It combines what I love about single malts, Irish whiskey and double oaked bourbon into one smooth delicious and velvety drink. I have found my holy grail of whiskeys.

Jameson 18 Year Old Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey

SpamOfDearh 4/6/23

Jaysus what a beautiful perfect whiskey

Absolutely fantastic. Beautiful Irish whiskey with clean sweet finish. No ice or water needed.

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey

Glendalough 3/29/23

Neat or on ice, it's not nice. Plasticky taste with bitter background. Goes down rough and sits there. Worst whiskey I've had in some time. Will avoid going forward.

Slane Triple Casked Irish Whiskey

Great tasting Irish whiskey at an afordable price

A nicely complex whiskey that tastes like the more expensive ones.
On the rocks or with a drop or 2 of water for a sipper really makes it bloom!

Bushmills 10 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey

Took a chance at an airport bar and loved it! I love the vanilla flavor as the ice melts. Smooth and potent, great value on this bottle.

Knappogue Castle 12 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey

An elegant and smooth Irish whiskey that exhibits a complex, but not overpowering finish. This is a superb example of a 12yr old whiskey that hits all the right notes. I will keep this in my bar.

Glendalough Poitin Mountain Strength

My husband ordered this by mistake. He says it is awful. Very harsh with an unpleasant taste and aroma. Glendalough Gin is very good.

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey

Used Glendalough in a tasting I conducted along with Red Breast 12, Green Spot and Quiet Man. All 10 people raved about Glendalough. Smooth and excellent taste. Most had not heard of Glendalough since it is not offered in Virginia ABC stores.

Bushmills Prohibition Recipe Irish Whiskey

Really enjoying this drink. Highly recommend as part of your collection.

McConnell's Irish Whisky

Irish that tastes like bourbon

A delightful new discovery

Glendalough Double Barrel Irish Whiskey

This is so smooth. No, burn on the back end either. One glass has 3 distinct profiles, Neat, with a splash, over ice is like getting three separate whiskies in one bottle

Paddy Old Irish Whiskey

Great drink!!! Good price! Took a little while to get it just don’t run low before you order.

Loved it!

Redbreast Lustau Edition Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

Exceptional value. Great taste.

My wife purchased the Redbreast Lustau Edition and I find it exceptional in taste, I think that it some ways it tastes better and is more aromatic and pleasing than my much more expensive 21 years old Irish whiskey. I was skeptical at first and asked her not to purchase the Lustau. I am very happy that she made the purchase. This Irish whiskey is such an exceptional value. I highly recommend you give it a try.

Redbreast 27 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey

I'm not kidding when I say 5 of us were all very excited to try this, being huge redbreast fans, and we all had the exact same reaction to the finish, it tastes like green onions. I didn't say a word waiting to see if anyone else noticed, but we all said the same. Stick with the excellent other redbreast choices.

The Whistler Imperial Stout Cask Finish Irish Whiskey

Not what I was expecting from a stout aged Irish. There’s an odd funk to it, almost a sour note. Like a bier de garde ale or something. A bit disappointed.

Jameson Original Irish Whiskey

Great tasting whiskey. I will buy again!!

Limavady Single Barrel Irish Whiskey

An excellent, smooth Irish Whiskey

A rare single malt from Ireland. Smooth, very drinkable for new and experienced whiskey drinkers. Ordered 4 more bottles after my first glass.

Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey

I found this beauty when I visited Dublin a few years ago, was intrigued by the name. They gave me a sample and i was hooked. Am now thrilled to find I can get this in the US, as I was only previously able to get it from Ireland. Clean, crisp, wonderful Irish whisky, you cannot go wrong with this.

Redbreast 12 Year Old Cask Strength Irish Whiskey

I'm not a big drinker in general but I greatly enjoyed this. Very smooth, good taste.
