Shopping Writer Meghan has found ‘the best whiskey’ she drank in Ireland via Amazon, so she can stock up in time for celebrating St Patrick’s Day
While on a trip to Dublin, Ireland, earlier this year, my boyfriend and I indulged in some classic Irish whiskey from various recognisable brands. We sampled many tipples, from the iconic Jameson brand to Roe & Co., but one that stuck out so much that we bought a bottle to bring home with us—and what’s more, I’ve found the exact same brand on Amazon.
The Teeling Single Grain Irish Whiskey that we fell in love with while in Ireland’s capital is currently available on Amazon for the reduced price of £33.85, down from £41.95. For those keen to get their hands on this staple drink in time for celebrating St.Patrick’s Day next week, it can be delivered as soon as Thursday.

I’ve found a way of grabbing my new favourite whiskey without needing to fly to Ireland or fight my way through duty-free, as you can grab a 70-cl bottle of Teeling Single Grain Irish Whiskey via Amazon.
This whiskey is triple-distilled with an unconventional mash bill consisting of 95% corn and 5% malted barley, which is exclusively matured in ex-Cabernet Sauvignon red wine casks for an aroma of red grape and berry. At the same time, this tipple boasts a silky, smooth, sweet taste and a short, dry finish. Though take not, it’s definitely a sipping whiskey – I learned this the hard way.
Boasting an impressive win of 92 points at the 2020 Ultimate Spirits Challenge, this Teeling Single Grain Whiskey can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks or in a cocktail – if you’re not a trained mixologist, don’t fret, as you can find a comprehensive guide to the best cocktails to enjoy their whiskey from Teeling’s own site.
And it’s not just me who adores this drink, as Teeling’s Single Grain Whiskey boasts an impressive 4.6 out of 5 stars from hundreds of Amazon customer reviews.
One thrilled shopper shares: “Teeling are very experimental and this whisky is perfect as a bridge to bring bourbon drinkers over to Irish whisky. Quite young, but sweeter than most Irish. very smooth, good biscuit and fruit notes. creamy finish.” Though they do note it’s “Too expensive for me to drink regularly, but this stays on my birthday and xmas list.”
Further praise comes from this customer who beams: “Lovely stuff. Was recommended this at a tasting school and thought it was one of the best drinks that we had during the day – many people also found this to be the nicest.”
Another shopper says: “Great whiskey and not a bad price. One of Ireland finest.”
And a fourth gushes: “This is an excellent whiskey with hints of vanilla and a smooth finish. I brought back a bottle from Dublin and couldn’t resist getting another once we finished the first. This is one of my new favorites!”
If you want to celebrate St.Patrick’s Day the right way or want to add a delicious whiskey to your drinks cabinet, you can pick up my new go-to whiskey from Amazon for the reduced price of £33.85 and have it on your doorstep by the end of the week.
