Is there a use by date on Irish Whiskey?

I bought a bottle of supermarkets own brand of Irish Whiskey (cheaper version of Baileys), a few years ago, but never opened it. I can't see any use by date on it, other than use within 3 months of opening. Do you think it would be ok to drink?

    impossible to respond to, like maximum questions of style. additionally there is this way of extensive form interior of each and every - there are pronounced to be someplace over 3 hundred diverse unmarried malt Scotches, for a start up. my very own time-honored is the Orkney malt Highland Park, yet there are some great ones from the Hebridean island of Islay - Lagavulin or Bunnahabhain, for a start up. Irish whiskies, in so a techniques as you may generalise, tend to be smoother than Scottish. attempt Tullamore Dew, in case you may receive it - it quite is somewhat nicely worth monitoring down. the only difficulty you may say for particular is that 'whiskey' is Irish and 'whisky' (no 'e') is Scotch.

    Bailey's is not Irish Whisky, it is Irish cream (which is made from Irish Whisky and milk). If you have Irish cream and you have not refrigerated it, it is probably curdled. It should still be safe to drink, but it will be disgusting.

    If you have Irish whiskey (a clear, amber-colored liquid), it ought to last for decades.

    Does`nt that contain "cream" in which case no. If you`ve had it some time you`ll probably find it`s gone solid in the bottle. I had a similar experience.
