“Don’t judge a book by its cover,” goes the old saying. Apparently it’s true with Tequila as well!

If you’re known by the company you keep, OH BOY do I have a story for you.

We’ve been writing about a lot of flawed products lately. Let’s cover one I love.

This whiskey is for someone, though I don’t know who.

A surprising example of when hate turns to love in the spirits world. Not everything makes a good first impression, but I’m as pleased as punch I stuck with it.

Not the most expensive Irish, nor the fanciest, but it’s permanently on my mind when it comes to gifting for several good reasons.

Overall Rating: ★★★
