“For the money” is not an Irish whiskey class. The bottle still has to be mashed, distilled, and aged in Ireland at least three years. Jameson Original is 40% ABV on the Pernod nutrition tile. Bushmills Original prints 40% / 80 on bushmills.com. A 1.5-ounce pour at 40% is one NIAAA drink. Street tags move. We will not invent a 10-bottle ranking or MSRP.
