"The smell of this wine is of apples and apricots, reminding me of spring. Very bright and fresh to the nose. Clear and crips apple flavors, with hints of cinnamon. The finish is quick, leaving bits of fruit as it fades away. Not overly sweet, well rounded."

I'd focus on the bourbons, since Irish doesn't do anything to you. The difference in composition between Maker's and Woodford is that Maker's uses wheat in the mash instead of rye. Irish (and Scotch) malt whiskeys are primarily made from barley.<br /><br />My advice -- next time you're out, order a rye on the rocks and see what happens to you.

It's a cliche, since I'm close to 100% Irish, but it's not all... just certain ones.<br /><br />Woodford does it, I've recently found, while Maker's and Jameson don't.<br /><br />Ever heard of such a thing? Is there something different about how these whiskeys are produced?<br /><br />(I'm cross-posting, asking Tavernwench the same thing - http://tavernwench.blogspot.com/ )Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09768276704546185456noreply@blogger.com
