    Blended

    The Pogues Whiskey

    An Irish Whiskey from the Celtic punk band The Pogues and West Cork Distillers (not to be be confused with the American whiskey Old Pogue). Fronted by Shane McGowan, the band have released The Pogues Whiskey which is said to have the highest malt content of any blended Irish whiskey! It was developed by Barry Walsh and Frank McHardy. The bells will certainly be ringing out for this one!

    £6.74 - £62.99

    Starts well and then let's you down heavily. What a shame.

    The initial taste is smooth and reminiscent of the Spey Valley Scottish Whiskies. Holds well on the palate. However, the lingering bitter aftertaste on the top of the mouth is off-putting and this is an experiment not ready for market yet.

    AWFUL advert for Irish Whiskey

    Absolutely the worst Irish Whiskey we have ever tasted. Corked taste (well it does come from Co Cork.) leaves you with a sour taste in your mouth. Made by amateurs and tastes like it.

    Hail Hail The Celts are here

    Outstanding whisky, I was pleasantly surprised as I am a huge Pogues fan and thought it was just the name being used to sell it. Very smooth, hints of nuts and toffee apples with a beautiful lingering light smokiness.
