    As a bourbon beginner I really like this one. It doesn't have the typical whiskey bite that other American versions have. I found it easier to sip than others and did find that it had the smooth texture noted in the review. I know experienced drinkers like the big bold stuff but us noobs can benefit from lighter stuff without the burn.

    Bottling things at 40% is such a wasted opportunity to have a better product. Even a wonderful dram like redbreast 12 has that drawback of lacking that little extra oomf. I really wouldn't mind spending that little extra money for the higher abv. Not saying everything has to be cask strength, but how good would it be if the standard were 46%?

    This is the first one I have disagreed with you. I enjoyed this far more than the Sexton and Black bush. Yes, those are more intense, or at least the Sexton is. However, I found this better balanced. The Sexton was so perfume heavy I felt like I was putting my nose in a bowl of potpourri! Anyway, I loved the review and maybe we'll agree on the next one. Cheers!

    I get this for about $45 a bottle here and I love it. They also have a cheaper green bottle for about $30 and for $15 more I like this 100x better. I am a fan and always have a bottle on my shelf.

      Yeah, this can be had for 30€ in Europe, so when Erik said "this is a 30 dollar whiskey" he was pretty much on the money.

    I’ve been back and fourth on buying this... and it has been the price (though I typically pay that and more for Single Malts...) 🤔
    I appreciate how objective you are with spirits and not only concerned about the flavors.
    It’s hard to understand why a whisk(e)y behaves like it does until we learn the process, techniques, tools and science that lie within an individual spirit. Thanks for providing us some of this knowledge today!
    Cheers Erik.
    I’ve been enjoying learning about Irish Whiskey lately...
    But, I think it’s time the Dr. prescribed you a bottle of Single Malt Scotch... I’m definitely not biased. Hahah

    I really agree with your closing statements, I actually prefer a $18 bottle of Paddy's to Tullamore 12.

    Waiting eagerly for the Knappogue Castle 12 year review! It’s what I’ve got on hand, so I’ll be comparing notes.

    Wow ! $55 sure is high. Totalwine in Boston has it at $40. If anyone is interested, this whiskey was distilled at Midleton before William Grant took over the Tullamore label.

    Here in Ireland it's priced at €45-50 which is a bit of a dead zone for a lot of Irish whiskey - many tend not to be worth the extra money over the best

      The price of Irish whiskey in Ireland is quite high. It's the tax.

      I can recommend the 14 . . . . . . if you can find it. Some of the Totalwine stores have it.

    Is this one better than Hankey Bannister 12?

    In my country this is under 30€, I paid 24€ (~30$) for my bottle. Don't know why it is so expensive in US.

    Most Irish whiskey are triple distilled. Is also the grain part of the blend triple distilled?

    • @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies
      @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies  4 роки тому +2

      The grain would have been column stilled.

    • @bululu1846
      @bululu1846 4 роки тому

      @@ErikWaitWhiskyStudies this is what I thought. So why can they write triple distilled on the bottle? It doesn't seem correct

      I am really liking your reviews, @@ErikWaitWhiskyStudies . You have have an excellent channel.
      I'm rather knew to whiskey/bourbon and have a question about the distilling process. What part(s), exactly, is/are triple-distelled?

  • @HostileButHonourable

    IMO I think Tullamores' problem is they're 'formulating' their whiskey to sell to a certain marketing demographic rather than being brave and trying to make the best whiskey they can. Nice, plain, safe but forgettable.
