Irish Whiskey

Description:

Irish whiskey is often softer and lighter than many other whiskey styles. It tends to show honey, grain, fruit, and gentle spice without heavy smoke. Whiskey brings grain, oak, vanilla, spice, dried fruit, or smoke into a cocktail. Even a small change between bourbon, rye, Irish, and Scotch styles shifts not only flavor but also how dry the finish feels. Taste whiskey in a small amount at room temperature first: oak, grain, sweetness, and smoke become easier to notice. After that, it is clearer whether it needs sugar, bitters, citrus, or only dilution.
