Behind the video :
Irish Poitín (Moonshine) was outlawed in the 1600s and recently, legal versions of the drink have come on the market. These vary in strength up to 60%. Illegal Poitín (pronounced Potcheen) could be up to 90% strength and was made using potato skins.
'Poit' is the Irish word for hangover, so 'Poitín' in Irish means 'little hangover'.

i love you Irish people i loce your videos the best i love the reactions and the blunt answers you give i have watched evey video yall have made so far. Pleas keep them coming a Big hey yall from Andrew in Texas

What is the name of the guy with the black hair and beard in the leather? he's been consistently entertaining on all of these videos... And that accent....
'we should have a challenge, 1 shot each til the first person dies' most Irish thing I've heard on this channel😂😂😂😂
"One shot each until the first person...dies."
3:25 hahaha the face of instant regret.

You guys ever think about doing an introduction videos? For your regulars at least? I love the reactions of the guy with the curly black hair especially, but I never know any of their names so I don't know how to comment, lol.

I love listening to these guys. I'm from Newfoundland Canada, very heavy Irish heritage, and they sound like home to me! When John says "How's she cuttin'?" especially.

Legally they are only allowed to go up to 90%, but proper Poitìn is 100% volume. It's basically pure ethanol.. So really, no different from moonshine.
"Feels like baby Jesus is trickling down me throat "The guy with the guy on his t shirt is so adorable and he sounds like that one carton with the pig who said jeepers 😂😂
Kellie, your facial expressions are hysterical!
Funniest alcohol taste test EVER!!! OMG when they put all THREE together! .... how are these people still understandable? Shouldn't they be flat on the floor!!
My friend is from Northern Ireland and when he visited his family he brought back some homemade Poitín from his uncle. I've drank a lot of different whisky/whiskey, vodka and such in my time, but i've never had a drink that affected me as quickly and strongly as that did. It turned me into a mumbling, slurring idiot and it burnt the skin off my lips for the better part of a week! It was worth it though. :)

I had a small shot of poitin when I was in Ireland a few years ago and it's one of the few spirits I've ever really liked. I may have to track down a bottle of it to sit next to the A'Bunadh and leer meaningfully at people who come to mine for drinks.
