OVERALL RATING
Overall, this was a pleasant whiskey once reigned in with a little water or ice. I would not put it up on the same pedestal with my current front runner in the Irish whiskey market, John L. Sullivan, but I would keep it in the running alongside Jameson as a solid choice should you be in the market for a fiery Irish whiskey to enjoy with your friends the next gathering you have.
