    It's being sold for under 30 euro. And, in my opinion, it's fantastic whiskey.

    At that price, I don't think there's a better Irish whiskey.

    It's supposed to be the same constituents as the standard Powers, but a lot older.

    I'll surely be buying a bottle.

    Also, the Celtic Whiskey Shop have a 14-year-old Bushmills single-cask (bourbon matured) on sale at the moment. Have not tasted it myself.

    And, this is a bit off the point, but the Highland Park 21 you get in duty free is being changed to a 40% abv one. The old one is supposed to be brilliant, so it's worth getting while it's still there if you're flying out of the country to somewhere with a good selection.

    Is this the Bushmills you're talking about? As it looks so so so so tempting.

    I'm sure someone here could pick you up a bottle or two and post them over.

    I'll send some over if you like. What state are you in? Some states are very sticky when it comes to receiving spirits.

    I presume you're of legal drinking age...

    You're not near Charlseton, are you? A friend of a friend runs a pub there called Madra Rua there. An Irish pub, needless to say.

    I may just start my whiskey collection with a bottle of it. Or two. See how the first one goes, and hide the second!
