Every brand of whiskey in the world as well as Irish ones distille and mix a huge amount of different tastes or produce bottles where the ageing has taken more time than the original. So the older the whiskey is the smoother and more spicy as well as exotic the taste will be.

Let us now praise Irish whiskey.

In my forties and fifties my friends and I enjoyed tasting, drinking, and debating the merits of single malt Scots whiskey. There’s only so many arguments over peat vs. heather etc, etc before you start to resemble Patrick Bateman and associates comparing business card stock.

Enter the Irish.

Irish whiskey has been my go-to in my sixties. Yes, you can find degrees of complexity among them, but they all share one fine quality: easy drinking . Plus, Irish whiskey is considerably more affordable than its Scottish counterpart.

You won’t hoard Irish whiskey. It’s for conversation; for sharing. And unless you’re seeing Lauren Bacall, much more acceptable on a date.

The bottle above arrived as a gift not long ago. I’ll probably crack it open at Christmas; I’m taking it easy on my liver these days. If you’re around we’ll share a drink.

Fighting 69TH, single malt Irish whiskey. A dollar from ever bottle sold is donated to support veterans and dependents in need of the famed 69TH Infantry REG, part of the NY National Guard. The unit first saw action in the Civil War where the name "Fighting 69TH' was bestowed upon the unit by no less than Robert E Lee, who recognized talent even when it belonged to the foe. Later members of the unit included "Wild Bill" Donovan, Joyce Kilmer, and of course Chaplain, Father Francis P Duffy. The 69TH continues to this day recently serving in the GWOT.

So if you enjoy Irish whiskey give it a try.
