    Its worse! In my opinion red bush would be more suited to mixing as opposed to drinking neat. Powers is vastly superior to red bush.

    Is there an end date?


    The 19th it says in the ad on the paper, wouldn't be surprised if it's extended, usually this will run up to Christmas Eve.

    Would you have tried the black barrel, any opinion?
    I really enjoy Powers but I'm torn between the two.

    Jameson Black Barrell and Bushmills Black bush are two very different whiskeys! What are you torn between?

    Im not a huge Jameson drinker but I do like Black Barrel. Iv never tried any of the caskmates bottlings though. Other posters might provide you with a little more help around the Jameson aspect of things but Black Barrel is nice IMO.

    Powers and Black barrel.

    Just the standard Powers I presume? I would have a preference for Powers over Jameson in general but the Black Barrell is generally around €15-20 more expensive than Powers so is marketed as a step up from Jameson/Powers.

    If your budget allows i'd go with Powers Three Swallows, its €30-€35ish at the minute in a few different places and IMO is a far superior whiskey to black barrell. If not then i would prefer Jameson Crested to Black Barrell and is better value at €25. These are all on offer prices, i think in general the prices are;

    Powers/Jameson €20-22
    Jameson Crested €30
    Black Barrel €40
    Three Swallows €40

    If you prefer Jameson go with the black barrel, if you prefer Powers try get the Three Swallows. All my opinion of course so your mileage may vary.

    Black barrel €30 in Tesco and Obriens
    Three Swallows €30 in Tesco.

    Tesco have Cardhu whiskey reduced from €49.99 to €30. It's a really good bargain for a very good single malt.

    1L Gordon's pink gin €20 in Tesco.

    that says it starts tomorrow on the site, it was definitely not in my tesco late last night, I noticed a lad buying several bottles and thought he was mad as it was €35 and the regular was €20 and looked like he was stocking up for "business bottles"

    Gordon's Premium Pink Distilled Gin 1 Litre
    Special OfferSAVE 15.00 Was 35.00 Now 20.00
    valid from tomorrow (19/12/2019) until 22/12/2019

    I saw it in Tesco (Rathfarnham) but I'm 99% sure it was priced over €40 (42 is in my head)

    Reduced to €35 in tesco

    As before offers might change, dates cannot be trusted.
    that is due to finish today and I reckon heineken will not be €20 in tesco again in the run up to christmas. I reckon it will go to €24.

    Today I got 25% deducted from the 1st 6 bottles presented at till. Anybody know the new T&Cs?
