New York, NY, (December 21, 2018) – The Fifty Best, rating the finest in wines and spirits, has for the first time turned its spotlight on Irish whiskey. The Fifty Best recently hosted a tasting where contenders were evaluated for the distinguished “Best Irish Whiskey” awards for 2019.
The Fifty Best is very pleased to announce that The Dubliner Irish Whiskey Bourbon Cask Aged was awarded a Gold medal.
Using professional criteria, the pre-qualified panel of judges blind-tasted the Irish whiskies and rated them individually on a 1-5 point scoring system with 5 being the best. After tallying the scores, medals were awarded based on the judges’ impressions.
The complete ranking results, along with tasting notes, are published on TheFiftyBest.com:
