Our friends at the Fine Wine & Good Spirits Shoppe sent us some Irish Whiskey cocktail recipes and facts just in time for St. Patrick’s Day.

They also dropped this (Irish car) bomb on me — Irish whiskey sales have grown 12% in Pennsylvania this past year! That’s a lot of Irish whiskey drinkers out there in PA and good on ya!
