Whiskey From Ireland

Irish whiskey was one of the earliest distilled drinks in Europe, arising around the 12th century. It is believed that Irish monks brought the technique of distilling perfumes back to Ireland from their travels to southern Europe around 1000 AD. The Irish then modified this technique to obtain a drinkable spirit. Although termed "whiskey", the spirit produced during this period would have differed from what is currently recognized as whiskey, as it would not have been aged, and was often flavoured with aromatic herbs such as mint, thyme, or anise. Irish whiskey has a smoother finish as opposed to the smoky, earthy overtones common to Scotch whisky due in part to peating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is the best Whisky from Ireland?

Redbreast 12-Year Whiskey is made from a mash of malted and un-malted barley, that’s triple-distilled and aged 12 years in Bourbon-seasoned American Oak barrels and Oloroso sherry-seasoned Spanish oak butts. These barrels give the whisky a fruity aroma with tastes of sherry, fruit and cream.

What makes Irish Whiskey different?

Irish Whiskey generally is distilled three times. The more distillations, the lighter and cleaner the spirit. The Irish Whiskey gives off a lighter and less sweet flavor than the full-bodied version of the American Whiskey. For a minimum of three years they are aged so that it will become more flavorful. The primary ingredient of Irish Whiskey is barley while the American Whiskey can be Corn, Rye, or Wheat.
