I acquired a taste for Irish Whiskey a couple of years ago on a visit to the Emerald Isle with good friends. We spent two weeks touring southern Ireland (Galway, the Dingle peninsula, Kinsale, Cashel, and Dublin, plus others) and also visited the Jameson Distillery; that was excellent. But, the exciting part was driving as I almost got us killed!
Anyway, tonight's cocktail is Irish Whiskey-based so obviously it was good!
The drink was a 'Rory O'More' (page No. 149 in the Bartender's Guide):
Recipe:
3/4 oz. Sweet Vermouth (Noilly Prat)
1 1/2 oz. Irish Whiskey (Jameson's, of course)
1 Dash Orange Bitters
Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.
I would be remiss not to give credit to my photographer, Olga, as well, for her yeoman's work.
Slainte!
