A triple distilled blended Irish Whiskey produced in Cork and made, unusually, with all three styles of Irish whiskey: single pot still, single malt and grain. First produced in 1779, it wasn't until 1913 that it changed it's name to Paddy after legendary salesman Paddy Flaherty. Before that it had the rather catchy name of "Cork Distilling Company Map of Ireland Old Irish Whiskey". Rolls right off the tongue that one.
The nose is oily and fresh with floral notes, cereal grains and plenty of fruit.
The palate is sweet and of medium-body with toffee and cereals, a rosewater note with a little butterscotch and vanilla.
The finish is spicy and dry with a little black pepper and oak.

Good mouth-feel, smooth midbody, nice finish. Great straight or in mixed drinks. Where have I been all these years? Minus the harshness of Jameson's but forceful enough to be there in Irish Coffee.
Very good whiskey for price. Easy to drink, smooth finish. Good every day drop. Typical of Irish Whiskey, it seems that the standard Irish whiskey blend is head and shoulders above most, if not nearly all Scotch. For instance, compare if you will to Johnny Red or Old Grouse, or Teachers etc... no comparison!
I have been drinking Paddy since I visited in 2000. Best I have ever had. Very smooth!
I like it. It's my go-to whiskey now.
Very smooth. Pleasant (if a tad unexciting) neat or on the rocks, but it's a fantastic mixer. Flavour-wise, it's basically a better version of Jameson.
