Have they any plans to have a 30th anniversary edition?
It would make a great tasting,to compare with the 20th anniversary courtesy of Zoltan of course

[DavidH]

In Aldi this Sunday, The Cooley Collection. It's that presentation pack of minis you can get in Kilbeggan. A very nice gift for €12.99.

[varizoltan]

I think Zoltan has about 399 bottles of it.
They originally told retailers there would be 200 bottles.

there is 400 of that 20th anniversary, and 800 of 1973

i have a good few alright....

Cheers for that David. I had a great sample night last night,had a 1/4 of Writer's Tears to compare the Greenore and Connemara too.

Bushmills 21 being sold by O'Briens for €99. Going fast.....

[DavidH]

In Dunnes today, I noticed that Powers is only €16 (while Jameson is €17 and Paddy €18).

[John]

Hi Ken,
I think you got a good bargain there, I was in O'Briens today and they were selling it for €145 & not a penny less!
Well played.

I picked up the Pot Still Collection recently for €302.88. My Christmas present to myself.
If you pieced them out it would be €45 for the Greenspot, €165 for the Barry Crockett, €55 for the Powers John's lane and €70 for the cask strength Redbreast.
that's a €30+ nearly enough to buy a Jameson 12.
I eager to get the display plinth now but not at €150

anyone got a better source?

Tesco are offering two x 1litre bottles of Powers for €40. The mid-winter gloom is suddenly lifting.

That is a serious bargain

[kurtbenoit]

That Tesco deal is for both Powers and Paddy, they are also selling Bushmills white label (70cl) for 15 euro.

[DublinGus]

Greenore 18 year old limited edition on sale in Kilbeggan whiskey bar €70. A friend got me a bottle instead of the Kilbeggan 18 year old which was sold out.

[varizoltan]

Just to correct the above post,

the Greenore 18 is on sale from 80 to €70
Kilbeggan 18 from 90 to €80, and they have stock of that too (so it is not sold out) at the distillery shop

[JohnM]

Bushmills 16 is €33 at whiskysite.nl

[Good Whiskey Hunting]

Jameson 12 Years Old, Distiller's Selection Just arrived from Regensburg auctions €35 ,I got a few others thing too but this is a real bargain i believe. I think i paid €50+ for my last bottle.

[JohnM]

Loch Lomond have released a 1966, which you can get for £85. I think it's the year the distillery opened.

A strange distillery that gets mixed reviewed, but the price of this looks good.

[Good Whiskey Hunting]

I was checking to see if finewines.ie had any bargains. There is a branch i go to in Tralee when i'm down visiting the bro.
I came across this Bottle of Jack Daniels for €100636.00( Hopefully they have it still up when this is read)

I'm assuming it's a new government directive to discourage binge drinking?

It's part of our new trade deal with China. We get the use of their cyber division to "adjust" spirit prices all over the web in favour of our domestic industry.

[Good Whiskey Hunting]

A new currency to adopt eh!
The yuan.

[IainB]

Bushmills 21 is €112 in Superquinn in Ranelagh. That's pretty good, I think!

[JohnM]

That's a very good price.

Another Bushmills bargain... the 1608 anniversary for £40 at the Whisky Exchange.

That's excellent as it is all being sold as a collectable now, It's actually the original RRP so they are still making a few quid.

Is there any of this left in the Distillery shop does anybody know?

[Good Whiskey Hunting]

Great value there.
Their even selling the Connemara gift pack for £2.50 cheaper than the regular bottle.

I wounder what special offers will be available in Irish off licences.
