Top 10 - Irish Whiskey Brands

Detailed below is a comprehensive list of the greatest Irish Whiskey Brands. - Well in my opinion anyway!

#1 - Redbreast

Redbreast is one of my all-time favourite Irish whiskey brands. The core range is so distinct that it offers a variety of options across the board. Weather you opt for everyone’s staple the heavily valued - Redbreast 12, or you plan to delve deep into something a bit extraordinary such as the Redbreast 27.

#2 - Jameson

A big favourite of mine, and the standard bottling will forever be one of the most accessible and recognisable bottles of Irish whiskey in the world.

#3 - Teeling

Since my very first bottle of Teeling, I've been in love with the flavour, and I've found myself tasting all they have to offer without being disappointed. For my taste though, I thought the Blackpitts expression was excellent. Delicious even!

#4 - Spot Whiskey

No Irish Whiskey list is complete without the amazing Spot range. Red and Blue being my all-time favourites.

#5 - Bushmills

Another well-known Irish Whiskey distillery, and for good cause. Bushmills is well-known for its distinct flavour and a large fanbase.

#6 - Writer’s Tears

The award winning Walsh Whiskey brand, Writer’s Tears has gone from strength to strength - offering not only great Irish Whiskey, but also offering diverse and unique whiskies, finished in some of the most incredible casks available.

Check them out here. 

#7 - Glendalough

After trying many of Glendalough's options, it's clear to say that they absolutely belong on this list. Big flavours come through, and each bottling has a great backstory. Excellent work.

#8 - Hyde

Hyde claims It's all about the wood, and it shows in their extremely diverse assortment of whiskies. I've had most of the line-up and I must say that I'm really pleased with the results.

#9 - Tullamore Dew

Tullimore Dew offers a diverse range of whiskies that will amaze even the most seasoned whiskey connoisseur. The Cider Cask is a personal favourite of mine.

You can see their posts here. 

#10 - Powers

Powers is generally disregarded in favour of more well-known distilleries, but don't let that deter you from the reality that some of their whiskies are very excellent and blow most other whiskies out of the water. Consider the John's Lane expression, for example. John’s Lane is a no nonsense whiskey that comes at a reasonable price.
