About this deal

We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. Karen Taylor, co-founder of the Whisky for Everyone blog, was at the helm of panel five. Taylor was joined by Elise Craft, co-host of The Whisky Squad; and Ivan Orsini, head bartender at The Aubrey in London’s Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The fifth round draw was made in The Pat Jennings Lounge at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park by Irish FA President Conrad Kirkwood and Gemma Roberts, Northern Ireland Country Manager for Halewood Artisanal Sprits, which produces Samuel Gelston’s Irish Whiskey. BBC radio presenter Joel Taggart acted as MC at the event. The first panel was led by Melita Kiely, editor of The Spirits Business, and chair of The Global Spirits Masters Competitions. She was joined by: Michael Fichtner, whisky sommelier at The Coburg Bar at The Connaught; Herchelle Perez Terrado, director of Drinks Partnership; and Chris Tanner, general manager of Silverleaf bar in London. Harry successfully ran the business until his death in 1891, when the business moved to another H.J. Neill of the next generation. However, like many Irish whiskey brands, Gelston’s disappeared as sales slumped as a result of Prohibition in the USA during the 1920s.

Ueno said: “I liked the finishes, they were crisp, and the malty character was still retained, which was nice.” Regardless of whether the Service offers the functionality to contribute, you are solely responsible and liable for any content and information that you create, upload, post, publish, link to, duplicate, transmit, record, display or otherwise make available on the Service or to other Members, such as chat messages, text messages, videos, audio, audio recordings, music, pictures, photographs, text and any other information or materials, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted (“Contributions”).Gold and Silver medallists – Tullamore Dew Honey and Jameson Cold Brew, respectively – were also enjoyed. There are a few techniques that Irish distillers have adopted over the years that help make much of the country's whiskey have its own unique style. These include the use of unmalted barley, copper pot stills and triple distillation. What is single pot still whiskey?

Samuel Gelston’s Single Malt Irish Whiskey

The judges then tasted all the Irish whiskey Master medallists. With such a high standard in various categories, the final choice was anything but easy. However, after careful consideration the judges came to the consensus that Redbreast 27 Years Old would be The Irish Whiskey Taste Master 2022. The third panel, chaired by Billy Abbott, ambassador at The Whisky Exchange, included: Caroline Roddis, editor of The Whisky Exchange; and drinks consultant Stephen Kennard, of SMJK Consulting. Two intermediate sides were drawn to face Premiership opposition. NIFL Premier Intermediate team Moyola Park are set to face Glentoran at home, while another NIFL Premier Intermediate outfit, Banbridge Town, have a derby tie to look forward to, and they will have home advantage. Portadown will be their opponents. The combination of triple distillation in addition to the finest ingredients and cask ageing creates an elegantly smooth yet expressive whiskey with rich flavours that can be savoured neat, over ice or mixed into a long refreshing drink.

Johnny Neill, a fifth generation descendant of Harry J Neill revived the Samuel Gelston’s brand and yet again it is developing a worldwide following. Spanish Earl Irish Whiskey intrigued the judges with its “wet washing on the nose”, leading to flavours of “toffee, butterscotch and orchard fruit” on the palate.Eight Silver medals completed the opening round, with winners including Tullamore Dew Caribbean Rum Cask Finish, Ha’Penny Original, and Wise Owl Whiskey. The fourth group consisted of chair Nicola Carruthers, deputy editor of The Spirits Business; Nicola Thomson, director of Practical Matters; Toshio Ueno, vice-president and executive instructor at Sake School of America; and Sara Jane Eichler, founder of the Negroni Club UK. The brand was founded in 1830 by Samuel Gelston, a wine and spirits merchant based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He had a shop located in Corporation Street in the city and his Gelston's Old Irish Whiskey became very popular. Upon his death the brand was sold to Harry J Neill, who expanded the business, the popularity of the whiskey and its distribution significantly.
