I’ve heard it’s garbage

I strongly dislike McGregor

I’m a single malt man and I know my whiskey and scotch so I shouldn’t even think about it

But goddamnit, I want that stupid useless mini hoodie. Don’t know why. I just do.

I am also not a fan of him. main reason was because I wanted the hoodie. going to put it on either a Tick figurine or a Hellraiser one. My favorite is Basil Hayden.

That’s a nice one, I lean towards Glenlivet or Macallan. I also love bourbon, a nice smooth bourbon is a beautiful thing on a crisp summer night.

Yeah this is the whiskey he punched an old man for not drinking. I’m shocked that didn’t sink this company, he’s probably making tons of cash off this.

Have bought and tried. It is my least favorite Irish whiskey I've ever tried, including some that are much less expensive.

Even mixing it with something strong flavored like cola didn't make it palatable.

It may even be more trash than Connor McGregor.

If your whiskey needs gimmicks like a mini hoodie to sell bottles, it's a pretty crap whiskey.

This kind of thing instantly tells me it's going to be cheap and terrible.

Good whiskey/scotch doesn't need a gimmick to sell.

If your whiskey needs an e, it's a pretty crap whisky.

I’ve bought it when I was waiting for payday, but I’ve found 2 Gingers is the same price & is the better Irish whiskey. But Jameson is still my favorite

I didn't care for it I almost have a full bottle of it that's sat at the house for months. TBH I didn't drink it again cause the day after I drank it I was like really angry at everything like just easily ticked off and I have never felt like that before drinking this so I'm highly sus of drinking it again cause that day sucked.

His whiskey is a blend made by bushmills which should get due credit as it's perfectly fine regardless on ones stance on McGregor nothing amazing but not the swill some would have you believe.

It's fine, there's nothing to really complain about. It's not remarkable but it's definitely not bad.

I'm just not understanding why the hoodie has sleeves. It could just be the torso portion and then the hood part and that would make sense on a bottle, but the sleeves? What's that about?
