Being of Scots-Irish descent, I guess I was born to the taste of good whiskey. I was introduced to good whiskey in a public house in Scotland about 20 years ago by a local who wouldn't let me buy a drink that wonderful evening. After sampling many varieties of Irish whiskey over the years...I spotted Knappogue, saw that it was a single malt and decided to try it. Needless to say, I have not purchased another brand since...

...Knappogue Castle is one of the finest whiskeys I've ever tasted.

At the recommendation of one of the sales staff at the Virginia ABC store, I tried a bottle of Knappogue Whiskey. It is now my favorite tipple.

This whiskey shows a translucent, floral malt flavor with more citrus than grain: drinking it is like drinking lemon pound cake, in a good way.

Ireland has returned to its roots with Knappogue Castle, a vintage pot-still single malt...

Whiskey: Give It a Shot

Men's Fitness, November 2007
For years, the only kind of Irish whiskey you could get in the U.S was a blend... There's now a growing selection from the Emerald Isle, including the Knappogue Castle 1995. Triple distilled and aged in old bourbon casks, this whiskey is especially smooth.

Details Magazine, November 2008
It seems 1995 was an excellent year for delicate, ridiculously addictive whiskey with hints of vanilla and apricot. The proof's in the bottle.
