Mizmazzle’s Trip Across the Pond

[goosehd]

…but on the other hand, you did keep up daily rations for sailors longer than most.

[Alex]

Yeah, the first time I ordered a double whiskey in america (50ml in the UK), I got a bit more of a buzz than I was anticipating

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle Any chance you’ll be near Cork,where the Red Breast distillery is? A tour would probably be way too much fun.

[Mizmazzle]

@Giles oh damn! That’s a little depressing haha

[Mizmazzle]

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot must be the angle. Cause the pours are standard across all the pubs.

@Mizmazzle great stuff, Mark. Looks like a great little town. Loving the side story of Redbreast discovery in Ireland . The PX is stellar. Redbreast 27 is next!

Btw, duty free at Dublin Airport is a great place for whiskey shopping. They usually have an amazing Redbreast selection (cheaper too, obviously).

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 we actually fly out of Cork to Bristol on Saturday. Don’t think we’ll have time to do the distillery though. When you mentioned it I almost rearranged our plans to make it happen. That’s how much I’m digging the Redbreast. But we’re having too much fun in these little coastal villages to leave any sooner than we have to. Thank god for the Duty Free @americanathreads

[Mizmazzle]

@Alex oh man! It’s not uncommon to get half a pint glass full for a pour in some of the dive bars around my house.

[Mizmazzle]

@flannel-slut ha! I’ll probably have to use a putty knife to scrap these 822s off my legs by the end of this trip!
@SKT today we went to the only island I’ve ever been to where jeans and flannels were proper June attire. Almost a bizzaro world inverse…not gonna lie…I loved it!!

[Mizmazzle]

@Daniel-San ha! Man, this is not even a far off exaggeration at this point. And we’re only 5 days in on this trip!

@AdamC thanks!! This place is so damn beautiful and the people are the coolest.

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle Just as a point of reference the Red Breast Cask Strength,and the PX are both currently selling for $93 in my neck of the woods. This way when you’re perusing the Duty Free shops,you can gauge the relative discount. I feel like Red Breast,is also pretty widely available in the states. I try to bring back bottles that I can’t get or the price is too good to pass up.

@Mizmazzle looks like you are having a hell of a time man!! Loving the updates.

[ZackB]

Looks like a helluva time! Keep the redbreast flowing and the pictures coming!

[Denman John]

@Mizmazzle Sounds like the island I live on. Still wearing jeans and flannels here as well. Glad the two of you are having a great time and love the updates … keep em’ coming!

[seawolf]

You think the whisky is good in Ireland. Just wait until you get to Scotland! Have a blast, dude!

[steelworker]

@Mizmazzle the beer swilling photos are the shit!
Im deeply grateful that cells did not exist when I was young.

[jordanscollected]

@Mizmazzle How is driving with the steering wheel flipped from U.S. cars? I'm stoked to see you and Morgan having a blast.

[louisbosco]

great stuff!! keep it coming!!

[Mizmazzle]

Today officially marks the end of our Ireland leg. I have been completely blown away by the people, the landscape and the food. We didn’t cover too much area in this beautiful country so only option is to come back some day!

Little Aran Island (Inis Oirr)

Those are the Cliffs of Moher in the background back on the mainland

Found my hand knit Aran sweater on the island. It’s very cool…err…warm. Yes very warm!!

[Mizmazzle]

Boat ride out to the cliffs of Moher

While everyone was taking pictures of these beauties….

I was captivated by taking pictures of the roping of my 193

But then back to the cliffs…those are dolphins swimming next to us.
