With the volume of new whiskeys hitting the market on a monthly basis these days, companies try to differentiate through marketing, creating a story, and/or truly having a unique product.

I’m often asked my opinion on what the best whiskey is for certain occasions or best choice as a gift. It dawned on me recently that I often come up with the same recommendation.

In what seems a dizzying array of new Irish Whiskeys, Prizefight Irish Whiskey stands out among the truly exciting ones. My fondness for this whiskey is due in no small part to the subtle hints of rye which brings a new, and welcome, zing to an otherwise traditional blend. There’s something quite pleasant that happened to this whiskey during its lengthy stay in West Cork, Ireland, resting comfortably in American rye barrels and soaking up all that spicy goodness.

And not just any whiskey mind you, but an example of the best whiskey the Good Lord ever saw fit to bestow upon his humble children… Irish Whiskey!
