Updated. The app is really visually pleasing with great pictures. The search has gotten better, though input is still sluggish. The app has lists which is great for managing cellars, tastings and most wanteds. The biggest disappointment is just how limited the DB is. There is no ability to add entries or vintages, instead its Google sheets. Meh. I submitted 3 widely available whiskeys 3+ months ago and they still haven't been added to the app. It's time to embrace crowdsourcing.
Hi David, the search glitch you mentioned is fixed in the latest version, though note this is not a predictive search in any case. On the idea of crowdsourcing content, it's something we may reevaluate in future but we intend this app to be a trustworthy source of Irish Whiskey content and as such partner with brands directly to source content.

Been waiting for this app to launch on Android and it's totally lived up to expectations. Super easy to use, love the option to create your own Collection & Wishlists, and is a great way to discover what's currently available out there in the world of Irish Whiskey 🥃

Love having an app that I can record what whiskeys I have in my collection and rate whiskeys I've tasted. I also love the information provided on each distillery and whiskey. I notice some distilleries aren't available on it though. Hopefully they'll get involved soon. All publicity is good publicity. Also, there are no other Midleton Very Rares on the app, just 2021. Will this be updated? The scanning feature doesn't seem to work at the moment either but that's a minor issue

Hi Stephen, Thanks for the feedback. We are continuously striving to add more great Irish Whiskeys and Distilleries to the app. As regards the bottle scanner, you can upload images of bottles that don't return a result from the scanning screen, or else contact us at contact@irishwhiskeyapp.com with the specifics and we will do what we can to help.
