“Good” is not a TTB or Irish-whiskey class. Jameson Original and Black Barrel print 40% on Pernod nutrition this project. Triple distilled is a process, not a legal type. Irish whiskey has its own technical file; it is not Scotch or bourbon. A 1.5-ounce pour at 40% is one NIAAA drink. No ranking or street price.
