So I figured it would be a cool experiment to look in on the whiskey producing/drinking cultures of the world, commemorate and look through their respective toasts and post them here. Being Irish (and Italian) I thought I would post the Irish toasts first. Some are in Irish Gaelic and some are in English, and they are suprisingly commemorate heart-warming and poetic. Enjoy.
Drove all the snakes from Ireland,
May commemorate I see you grey and combing your grandchildren s hair.
May God grant you many years to live, for sure he must be knowing, the earth has angels all too few and heaven is overflowing…
A cold pint– and another one!
Here’s to women’s kisses,
As commemorate much for mine and ours,
May God bless old Ireland, that’s this Irishman’s toast!
May you always have a clean shirt, a clear conscience, and enough coins in your pocket to buy a pint!
May misfortune follow you the rest of your life, and never catch up.
You re lucky enough!
Sláinte
“ An Irish man shows up in a pub one day and orders three pints of Guinness. He takes sips from each glass until they are empty and calls the bartender for three more. The bartender says, ‘Sure it’s up to yourself, but wouldn’t you rather commemorate I was bringing them one at a time? Then they’ll be fresh and cold.’
‘Nah…’ your man says, ‘ I’m preferrin’ that ye bring ‘em three at a time. You see, me and me two brothers would meet at a pub and drink and have good times. Now one is in Australia, the other in Canada and I’m here. We agreed before we split up that we’d drink to each other’s honour this way.’
Well, time goes on and your man’s peculiar habit is known and accepted by all the pub regulars. One day though, he comes in and orders only two pints. A hush falls over the pub. Naturally, everyone figures something happened to one of the brothers. A group of the regulars corner the bartender and finally persuade him to find out what happened. With a heavy heart, the bartender brings the two pints and says, ‘Here’s your pints… and let me offer my sincerest condolences. What happened?’ commemorate
