Airish fowk know their… Whiskey in the Jar’ow.\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;In a land not so far far away there are vast green fields, beautiful freckled redheads and\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; great Whiskey distilleries\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;. And many stereotypes, obviously.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;When you see the spelling being \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;‘Whiskey’\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;, chances are it’s not a typo. There’s an ‘e’ in ‘Whiskey’ when it’s Irish. Historically,\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; Irish Whiskey distillers\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; inserted an ‘e’ to their spelling to differentiate their product from Scotch Whisky. American Whiskeys, both Bourbon and Rye, have in general taken-up the insertion of an ‘e’.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Irish Whiskey, as one of the\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; greatest styles of Whiskey\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;, is usually distilled three times, making it oh so smooth and pleasant to the tongue. Or as we overheard: ‘The Irish are pussies, they distill their Whiskey three times’.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Unfortunately,\u0026lt;em\u0026gt; the 20th Century\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; saw the decline and fall of the Irish Whiskey industry. In recent years Irish Whiskey started making a comeback and new distilleries are opening faster than we can … erm… drink.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;u\u0026gt;Smartass Corner:\u0026lt;\/u\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;1) There are \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;three general Irish Whiskey varieties\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;: ‘Grain Whiskey’ – mostly derived from corn, ‘malted barley pot-still-distilled’, and ‘pure pot-still’ or ‘single pot still’ as it is now officially known – a combination of malted and un-malted ‘green’ barley distilled in copper pot stills). Irish distillers use unmalted barley for less pronounced biscuit flavors. Irish Whiskeys tend to be super-smooth, less assertive in taste, and finish with a pleasant freshness.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;2) \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Irish Coffee\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; was actually invented in San Francisco, not Ireland. Anyways, here is the recipe: 1 cup freshly brewed strong coffee 1 tablespoon brown sugar 3-4 tablespoons Irish Whiskey Heavy cream, slightly whipped.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;3) \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Poteen\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; is a Whiskey made from potatoes, in other words, it’s Irish Vodka.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;4) For foodies, \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Colcannon\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; (from cál ceannann, meaning “white-headed cabbage”) is a traditional Irish dish mainly consisting of mashed potatoes with kale or cabbage.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;5) The \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Vikings founded Dublin\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; in 988.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;6) \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;The Harp\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; is the official emblem of Ireland, not the shamrock. It was St.Patrick who made the shamrock so popular.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;7) 40% of \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;presidents of United States\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; had Irish ancestors.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;In this box (as always) we wanted to show you the range of Irish Whiskey flavors. Now invite you friends, grab your glasses and remember Uncle Flaviar’s words: \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;‘Flaviar is not here to help you drink more, but to help you drink better!’\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;em\u0026gt;Enjoy.
