Kilbrin is an Irish whiskey brand that I recently had the opportunity to try. As I was unfamiliar with this brand, when I came across a mini 50ml bottle I bought the mini bottle. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a website specifically dedicated to the brand, but the bottle indicated that it is produced by The…

Buchanan’s Pineapple
Now this is a brand I walked by a million times and never even thought to even try. It wasn’t until recently that we got a chance to sample and well, I have thoughts. Buchanan’s is a blended Scotch that was launched in 1884 by James Buchanan. The idea was to create a smooth blend…
Untitled Bourbon Whiskey private barrel selection
This bourbon was produced by District Made Spirits which was distilled by One Eight Distilling in Washington DC. Sadly, this distillery has closed. I got the chance to taste this because our friends had a bottle but, before this we had not heard of this brand before. The one we tried was a cask strength…
Tip Top Proper Cocktails
The warmer it gets outside the less whisky I drink. Fear not, it’s still chilly in Massachusetts but we recently saw these little ready-made cocktails and I couldn’t help but get them. I purchased the Manhattan and the Old Fashioned at $4.99 each. I only purchased one can of each, but you can purchase an…
Ardbeg Anthology 13 Year: The Harpy’s Tale
Ardbeg is truly one of my favorite whisky brands. But, if I’m being truthful, the last couple years their products and their pricing have been a total miss for me. The only recent product I absolutely loved and was so surprised with was Ardbeg BizarreBQ. Here we have another release that yes, we paid way…
The Dunbrody Irish Whiskey
If you’ve never heard of The Dunbrody Irish Whiskey, well, let me introduce you to this new brand of Irish Whiskey. My husband and I attended a whiskey tasting event (which we paid to attend) at Julio’s Liquors this past weekend and this brand made its very first appearance. The brand falls under the LHK…
Bushmills 25- and 30-Year Irish Whiskey
It’s the start of March and we are less than 2-weeks away from St. Patrick’s Day so why not start this month with Irish whiskey. Very recently I had the glorious opportunity to sample both their 25- and 30-year whiskies. Let me start by saying that both are extremely expensive. These are types of whiskies…
The Dalmore 14-Year
It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of The Dalmore. I loved it so much, one of my husband’s Christmas presents last year was The Dalmore King Alexander III. It’s an exceptional juice but we know it’s extremely pricey. This 14-year whisky on the other hand is a bit more affordable and spoiler alert,…
Jameson Triple Triple Distilled Irish Whiskey
Alright, I’m sorry about this one as it’s not one you can find unless you are traveling and at a duty free. But, if you are traveling then this review is for you. The Triple Triple is matured in Bourbon, Sherry, and hand selected Málaga Cask. Although I tried finding an msrp the numbers were…
Hirsch The Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Double Oak
I recently had the chance to try Hirsch for the very first time. Their Single Barrel Double Oak is a gem! It’s a cask strength whiskey that doesn’t drink like a cask strength whiskey. This whiskey is aged for roughly 9 years and this bottle had an ABV of 55.5%. Nose: oak, spices and leatherPalate:…
The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve
I recently purchased this mini bottle to avoid having to buy the big bottle. Honestly, I prefer to buy small bottles. They are cheaper and if I don’t like the juice, they don’t sit on our shelves. This whisky is for those who enjoy whisky on the sweeter side. Nose: sweetness and tropical fruitPalate: caramel,…
