Whiskey Chats

Join me for My Chat about the Marrowbone Lane bottling that the Irish Whiskey Society released in 2016. In a nod to the centenary of the 1916 Easter Rising, where the William Jameson distillery in Marrowbone Lane in The Liberties area of Dublin was used as a stronghold by the Irish Republicans. This landmark release of this 11yr old Single Pot Still Irish whiskey, in the heavier, oilier trad pot style stands out as one of the best Irish Whiskeys of the modern age imo. I spoke to Peter White (who was IWS vice-president at the time), Fionnán O'Connor (Author of A Glass Apart & cask committee at the time) and Willie Murphy aka PotStillWill (also IWS cask committee at the time) who were instrumental in getting this Midleton distillate bottled and released for all to enjoy.
