The result is a bold yet smooth triple-distilled blended Irish whiskey with a fruity nose of apricots and orange peel, a touch of sweet vanilla and honey on the palate and finished with a hint of chocolate and cinnamon.<\/p>\n<p>As the rumour goes, members of the notorious Peaky Blinder gang regularly visited Sadler\u2019s pubs and establishments at the turn of the 20th century.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>As a nod to this, the bottle label features the mug shot of Stephen McHickie, a prominent Peaky Blinder gang member who was infamously photographed after being charged with breaking into a draper\u2019s shop<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4>St Patrick&#8217;s Day<\/h4>\n<p>Did you know that leprechauns are one of the reasons you\u2019re supposed to wear green on <a href=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/celebrating-saint-patricks-day\/\">St. Patrick\u2019s Day<\/a>?

Or better yet, drink it neat at room temperature in a lowball glass. Many aficionados will add a few drops of water which enhances the aromas and softens the finish. An Irish whiskey with a uniquely English story, Peaky Blinder has a rich and vivid history dating back to 1861.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-101176\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PeakyBlinders_3_1x650.jpg\" alt=\"Peaky Blinder Irish Mule\" width=\"1000\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PeakyBlinders_3_1x650.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PeakyBlinders_3_1x650-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PeakyBlinders_3_1x650-940x611.jpg 940w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PeakyBlinders_3_1x650-222x144.jpg 222w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Irish Mule Recipe<\/h4>\n<p>A refreshing way to enjoy whiskey with spicy notes from ginger beer and<\/p>\n<p>50ml <strong>Peaky Blinder Irish Whiskey<\/strong><br \/>\n\u00bd can ginger beer<br \/>\nIce<br \/>\nLime wedge<br \/>\nMint sprig<\/p>\n<p>Add the ice to a whiskey tumbler and pour in the whiskey and ginger beer.
