yeah wicked stuff, its pretty much "Moonshine", its a pretty great almost hallucinating drunk, it's not one you drink for the taste more about getting it in ya. i always heard it was made from potato's but it's really just unmatured whiskey
Can be nice when consumed correctly.
Sip it slowly and never on an empty stomach.
Also beware chugging a pint of water the next morning, sends you off into a drunken state again.
You can add your own twist to the brew as far as I know. I have tried a poitin that had sloe in it and another that had a some berries thrown in. The Sloe one was the nicest I've had.
i tried it mixed with homemade baileys in the last pub i worked in. i thought i was grand til i stood up and my legs literally went to jelly. i had to sleep it off in the back of a van
Once, when I was about 16, my sisters came home from England with litres and litres of Blue Label Smirnoff. My mate and I were told we could have "a little bit" when no one was watching. Being rather sophisticated, I thought, I came up with the idea that he and I would hide ours in a glass of orange juice and slip in some of the Galliano that was in the press and have ourselves Harvey Wallbangers. Score.
We had our Harvey Wallbangers....and went on the fúcking rampage. We got thrown out of a junior disco, fought the bouncers, smashed down a fire exit to get back in, fought the bouncers again inside, got thrown out again, I shifted his girlfriend, he tried in on with my sister (11 years older than him), we got thrown out of my house to sober up, then fell into his mother's much loved rose bushes, wrecking them and destroying ourselves. We were a disgrace.
The next morning, we had hangovers like Ollie Read. The Galliano bottle that was storing the poitín came to be a symbol of fear for me. It took me weeks to go drinking again, weeks I tell ya
A friend of mine gave me a mug with potín, honey and hot water when I'd a chest infection once. It might not have cleared up the infection but by Christ I wasn't suffering anymore. I'd drink it again but only a little at a time and very slowly.
its extremely leathal guy i know! best poitin is made in connemara mostly, most poitin made outside connemara contains bleach and rat poison, honestly sip in small moderation
