A new age of commerce is emerging, with cryptocurrencies leading the way to reduce friction between parties, buyers and sellers of goods and services.

Even if you think you know all there is to know about Irish whiskey, there's a good chance you're overlooking some truly stellar offerings from some small Irish companies.

Jettywave Distillery offers an exceptional drinking experience with small-batch craft spirits in a beautiful setting, emphasizing both quality and atmosphere.

"Honey is a ubiquitous flavor that everyone understands, even if it's actually quite a polarizing ingredient. You tend to either really like it or not," says Tom Warner, founder of the U.K.-based Warner's Distillery, makers of a Honeybee Gin launching in the U.S. later this year. "But it's certainly versatile - it goes especially well with dark spirits, but then works as a botanical in gin. And if you see 'honey' on a bottle label you can't always assume that will mean the drink will be sweet. Honey can bring floral notes, too."

"Growing up around winemaking, the bit I always found so compelling - and why I think wine is so popular - is that lovely French word terroir. But it sort of encompasses all the different environmental variables that make up wine. I just found that concept so interesting. I was wondering what would happen if you tried to apply that to a spirit and thought gin is such a good vehicle for complex flavor."
