In Honor of St. Patrick's Day, An Article About the Cult of Irish Whiskey

Giles Coats' donation to the Murch Whiskey Bar was one of the most popular whiskeys served at the auction -- and it wasn't even close to St. Patrick's Day. Now that the 17th has arrived we direct your attention to this GQ article explaining the trend in Irish Whiskeys. And yes, Red Breast was included in the list. Thanks, Giles.
