Old Midleton Distillery

While in Cork, Ireland I toured the distillery of Jameson's Whiskey. It's not in operation any more and is more of a museum of how whiskey used to be made in the old days, but that makes it even better. All that learning was put to good use at the tour's end: I selflessly volunteered to take a taste test comparing scotch, whiskey, and bourbon. The Irish whiskey really was nicer.

Here's an old lorry called "Paddy Flaherty" (perhaps that was the brand of whiskey the truck hauled?) at the distillery. I love the 50's shape.
