I'm more partial to Irish whiskeys, Jamison or Tullamore Dew blended mostly, but for special occasions a really fine smooth tasting whiskey (WHEN I CAN AFFORD IT) is 10yr old Bushmills, a 12yr old Glen Moray Scotch whiskey but, the best are the pot still Irish whiskeys (well for me anyway) Redbreast and Dalys of Tullamore pot stills, unfortunately I can't afford these on a regular basis (when you can get them)
On a side note, if you want to try an Australian whiskey, then the Lark distillary in Hobart Tasmania do a very good whiskey, they also do a very good Pepperberry Liqueur;)
Also I have heard good reports about Hellyer's Road, Southern Fire Single Malt Whiskey in Tasmania.

My wife was very excited I had stopped talking about the green oval last night....but is not sure she wants me to display as much enthusiasm for whisky as I do the Disco......
I didnt know there were any Tasmanian whiskys.....if they are any good, Im picturing a drive around the island, punctuated by the occasional bit of mud, a dram of whisky, the foood is excellent, and GOC Home Command loves the B and B scene down there...... Just need to convince her to drive:)
Might I suggest that if there is such a thing as an AULRO annual gathering, Tasmania is the spot for this year!
The debate between the Scots and the Irish over the whisky title goes back to the Dark Ages. The first legal distillery in the British Isles was in Northern Ireland. Bushmills, on the northern coast of Ireland, has had a license to distil since 1608, the reign of King James I of England and VI of Scotland, who also laid claim to Ireland.
Now the Irish spell it whiskey and the Scots spell it whisky, the founder of the Jameson distillary John Jameson (A Scot by birth;)) spells it whiskey.
The Irish invented the stuff, they spell it whiskey:p
I don't worry how it's spelt, I just enjoy the taste of either:D

Could be said...
"the Irish invented it, the Scots perfected it.... and the Americans, well we won't go there."
*dons flame proof suit*
Have to say, am partial to either Scots or Irish.....
