“...asking for Bushmill’s on St Patty’s day will not go well. It’s a Northern Ireland whiskey...+

Ah, but it goes back to before things were divided - Bushmill’s is the oldest licensed distillery in the world. And I do not plan to be in NYC on this date anytime soon. I have been in Dublin on St Patty’s day, though in Ireland generally it is a religious day, and special services are held in honor of the patron saint.

I do not doubt you, but in some Irish pubs on the west side of NYC (Hell's Kitchen>/i> is the name of the neighborhood), ordering a Bushmill's on St. Patty's Day would be looking for some serious trouble.
