Buy Irish whiskey online in Australia at Whisky Wine Sake. The style that taught the world to love whiskey — triple-distilled, famously smooth and enjoying the greatest comeback in the spirit's history, from a handful of surviving distilleries to a hundred-strong renaissance.
The smooth operator
Irish whiskey's signature is approachability: triple distillation (against Scotland's usual two) produces a lighter, silkier spirit — honey, orchard fruit, vanilla and gentle malt with barely a rough edge. The unique single pot still style, made from a mix of malted and unmalted barley, adds a spicy, creamy character found only in Ireland. It's the ideal first whiskey and a rewarding last one — the top-shelf aged expressions stand with anything from Scotland or Japan.
Drinking it Irish
Neat, with a drop of water, or in the definitive Irish Coffee — and it mixes beautifully, with ginger ale being the pub classic. If Irish smoothness wins you over, explore its close cousins: gentle Speyside malts in our Scotch collection or the refined blends in Japanese whisky. The full whisky range awaits the curious.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Irish whiskey spelled with an 'e'?
Tradition — Ireland (and the US) kept the 'e'; Scotland, Japan and Australia dropped it. Same family, different spelling.
Is Irish whiskey smoother than Scotch?
Generally, yes — triple distillation and a largely unpeated style make it lighter and softer, which is why it's the classic gateway whiskey.
What is single pot still whiskey?
Ireland's own invention: malted and unmalted barley distilled together in a pot still, giving a signature spicy, creamy texture no other country produces.
