Here Dave this is a better one,


An Introduction to Irish Whiskey

[daveduke007]

The "Paddy's" distilled Whiskey before the "Jocks" I believe seany

[seanbeag7]

You are right dave, and they also distilled "poteen" before any jocks or english could figure it out.

At the risk of being a pedant - surely Johnnie Walker is a whisky as opposed to a whiskey. I believe wars to have been fought for less.

Signed Harley Quinn a typical southern pratt - to save Dave making the comment

[daveduke007]

Your right HQ I spelt it wrong, should be whisky

So the "typical southern pratt" comment will have to wait until another day mate

Lethal stuff that , for some unknown reason I once purchased a bottle of it from some joker and was in a bad way after 2 glasses of the stuff

I didn't feel right for days afterwards

I used the rest to strip the paint off the banisters on my stairs and wash my windows

Scotch only became popular during WW2, simple fact you couldn't get Irish Whiskey.
In the States they re labled Scotch with Irish whiskey lables because it was the Irish stuff the people wanted, Irish Whiskey never recovered to its former glory after WW2.
I could go into the whys & what fores but i wont

Nice video Dave!

They slipped in nicely how superior they are to single malts.

Johnnie Walker puts on a some good pomtional events. Was at one in the States where they gave a presentation and let is drink all the Red and Black we wanted. But didn't spot and sissyboys there.
