TASTING NOTE: ... We reviewed Kilbeggan back in 2002, and we were fond of it. Times have changed, and our fondness for it has grown. Kilbeggan is a lovely blended whiskey; you get great quality for the price. The heat that we found in it six years back has faded, leaving only honey, grain, and oak. Very enjoyable straight up. Score –**** (out of 5). (F.S. Fitzgerald, www.alcoholre-views.com, May 2008) |
