When drinking distilled beer I prefer Kentucky straight bourbon or single malt scotch.

Then again, I'm willing to learn!

Regular Bushmills is a good place to start. One of the "lighter" Irish Whiskies.
Smooth too. And if you don't like it you'll have no trouble getting others to finish it for you.

Re: Irish Whiskey
I got a bottle of Bushmills 16 yr, and it is really good. Im still new to this liquors so I am getting used to it, but this one I tried it and even with out Ice or anything it was so smooth . I really liked it. Now Im gonna get a bottle of Black Bush to compare.

Re: Irish Whiskey
I picked up some Black Bush from the distillary up the Anterim coast outside Belfast and it is AWESOME!

Re: Irish Whiskey
I finally found a bottle of Redbreast on my travels and have concluded that Irish whiskey just isn't for me. I just prefer the character of bourbon and scotch. While Irish whiskey can be smooth and everything it is just a bit too one dimensional for my palate.

Re: Irish Whiskey
Nobody has mentioned Michael Collins, really like this one.
My "regular" drinking whiskey is the standard Bushmill's. Black Bush is good but I prefer the standard Bushmill, especially for the price. I'm also a big fan of Jameson, always a good choice.

Re: Irish Whiskey
Tullamore Dew reminded me almost of Moon-shine. I like it alot just lacking the strength of a good shine. good stuff.

Re: Irish Whiskey
This may have been mentioned, but in any case...
Red Breast tops the list of Irish whiskies for me.
Smooth, mellow, flavorful, etc. etc. (please feel free to add any superlatives).
Not to say I don't like Tully's, Jameson or Bushmills.
My brother gifted me a bottle of Bushmills 10 year old a while ago, and it was VERY good.
Powers isn't bad either for casual sipping.
Top of the heap remains Red Breast.

That Michael Collins looks pretty interesting.
