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...
