Slane Special Edition Irish Whiskey. An Irishman's Opinion #31. The Legacy of 81!

[@TJO1913]

Welcome back John. Great to see you posting videos again.

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

Thanks 👍

[@alehhandro1]

Welcome back John! I stopped by the Irish tavern here in town this weekend and asked for Yellow Spot in a Tuath glass. The bartender had never heard of Tuath glasses. Luckily he did have Yellow Spot. One of these days I’ll track down Shane too. For some reason, Irish whiskey is very underrepresented in liquor stores in my region of the US.

I really look forward to your Whiskey reviews, they make my day. Keep them coming . Try Gelston's Irish.

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

Cheers Peter, will do

[@pizzawarlord9232]

Just bought the Slane special edition per your recommendation and it is a wonderful dram. Thank you for the heads up.

[@silivror]

So glad I discovered your channel. Irish Whiskey and Bourbon are my favorites.

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

Welcome aboard!

The last time over in Ireland, I couldn't believe how expensive the Whiskey was. I could buy Redbreast cheaper in New Jersey.

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

It's ridiculous

[@ollieoxenfree242]

I got my hands on Slane this weekend. It's every bit as good as you said. I'm searching for the Special Edition now.

Would you consider doing a review of The Sexton Irish Whiskey please? I really would love to hear your opinion of The Sexton!

Good to see you again! Slane is readily available here in California. Now I’ll be on the lookout for the Special Edition. Thanks You’re right John. Today I was at Costco. Found the regular Slane for $17.99. They also had Blue and Yellow Spot, each for around $95.00.

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

Hope you can find a bottle

John, glad to see you back. I'm in the US and was just in Dublin for St Patrick's Day. Thought of you while there. Actually toured the countryside with local family and passed thru Slane, unfortunately didn't get the chance to stop and check the castle or distillery. On my list for next visit. Great review!

[@tcb8295]

Also, picked up a couple Tuath glasses. Thanks for the introduction of them on your channel. Powers 3 Swallows it's definitely my favorite now!

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

Great to hear you had a good time!

[@tcb8295]

Also, had some Grace O'malley Irish whiskey down in Florida. Didn't see it in Ireland, but maybe you can do a review??

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

I'll keep an eye out for it

[@ciaranhollywood770]

Great review John, as always. Keep em coming!

[@jbarron4]

Found a bottle at Total Wine and More $39 but based on your review had to pickup to try

[@ce53]

good to see you again, John. Havnt seen the special edition around but if I do i'll pick it up for sure. Got a bottle of Roe & Co at the weekend, amazing. But it was on special offer, 25 euros at super valu. Love to hear your take on it if you ever pick it up. Great review as usual, keep them coming...

[@thewhiskeyshed.4105]

Cheers Paddy, I have done a review od Roe and Co wasn't my favourite, I must try more from them

[@ce53]

@@thewhiskeyshed.4105 my apologies John, I looked back on your videos and found the roe &co video. Great history lesson, very enlightening. I agree with your powers comparison and in hindsight powers is definitely more bang for your buck. keep up the good work..

Love the Irishman accent to Irish Whiskey Wish you would mark out of 100 so we can get an idea of top rated or best For example not as good as the John’s Lane which I rate at 90 but still an 89 Just saying Mate Canuck living in Australia who love good Irish Whiskey ❤❤😊😊

[@russvonhagen241]

Have you tried the Slane Extra Sherry Wood? 45%

[@Annaisineire]

Good one John :)

[@ddreese]

Slane Special Edition was $38 at Total Wine & More in Arizona

[@edwardstleger5202]
