Michael Collins Irish Whiskey Review
An affordable option owned by the Sazerac Company, this Irish whiskey contains a blend of pot still, malt, and grain whiskeys. Considering its price tag, this product has an impressively fruity and floral profile. Dried raspberry aromas kick off the experience and continue onto its smooth sipping palate. Not just great for the price, this is also an enjoyable outlier for this bracket of Irish whiskey.
