A riff on the classic Last Word cocktail, substituting Irish whiskey for gin

The Last Word is one of my favorite cocktails, but I find this to be superior. I stick to the specs and feel it benefits from a good long shake. I have tried it with more expensive Irish whiskeys but find regular Jameson works quite well. Excellent work Mr. Difford.

Agreed, this was one of my earlier Last Word experiments, and it really works. Jameson black barrel is the Irish whiskey that I most often have in house, and it works great here.
