A big thank you to everyone who joined in in tonight's #TweetTasting and a bigger thank you to @hispiritsg and @IanDoogue and the team at Hi Spirits Ireland for this months tasting of #EagleRare10
For tonights #TweetTasting we’re joined by @hispiritsg and @iandoogue from Hi Spirits Ireland… experts in all things Bourbon and ready to hear your thoughts and answer your questions 👋 #EagleRare10
@CelticWhiskeyCl@IanDoogue I always recommend that you try it as is first. The liquid in the bottle is what I call the "truth", it's the whiskey the way the distiller and producer intended. Always cut a few small drops at a time with bourbon until you get it right for you
@KevinAbrook@CelticWhiskeyCl@IanDoogue Hi Kevin, typical evap is 12% in first year and then approx. 6% thereafter. Our Eagle Rare 17YO from the 2018 release had >92% total evaporation!
Time for the first nose… it’s been a long time since we ventured outside of Ireland for our #TweetTasting… looking forward to seeing what we all think of a good bourbon for a change… #EagleRare10
So, who wants to join me for a #Bourbon tasting?! I’ve teamed up with @HiSpiritsG to bring an EPIC line up of whiskeys in the @Thepalacebar21 to try convert me to bourbon! Tickets below for 16th October, €40 plus booking
