Newslink: Whiskey Review: Writers’ Tears Irish Whiskey

Writers’ Tears Irish Whiskey, bottled by Walsh Whiskey Distillery, is a blend of single malt and aged single pot still whiskies, the latter category referring to Irish whiskeys made from a combination of malted and unmalted barley on a pot still. This unique combination means that Writers’ Tears is technically a blend, but it’s one made entirely without grain whiskey. Irish whiskey once suffered from a reputation for being cheap or simple as a result of bootlegged Irish whiskies during Prohibition, but contemporary expressions like Writers’ Tears and many others are changing the way people think about Irish brands.
