I love the Whiskies of the world. I don't drink much of this elixir of the God's but I enjoy it when I do, and I don't go over the top. Straight up or on ice... the only way to drink it in my opinion, and more than two drams in one sitting is too much for anyone to continue enjoying it.

Jameson's Irish Whisky is silky, smokey, smooth. I prefer this one straight, or cooled... but not on ice.

When sipping away on Jameson, I can easily picture myself sitting in a smoke filled reading room, cigar in hand (I don't smoke), next to a smouldering fire in a hearth, reading glasses perched on the nose (I don't have them), reading one of the classics. Somewhat sophisticated, and far from the reality of my world, it's a perfect escape for a while.

Being of Scottish heritage, I do honestly believe the Scots are the true masters. However, Jameson's Irish is a standout that surpasses many of the Scotch Whiskies.

Do try it!
