Connemara Peated Single Malt Irish Whiskey, 70cl

Product Information

This whiskey is quite the anomaly. What makes this single malt distinct is its unusual peated profile, which is highly uncommon for an Irish whiskey. Connemara is widely known as the only Irish whiskey with a smoky flavor. Connemara Peated Irish Single Malt Whiskey, which is produced at the Cooley Distillery in the County Louth, serves as a tribute to the distillers who operated in the region centuries ago. Production of Connemara begins by drying barley over peat sourced from the famed bogs of Connemara. The peaty smoke infuses the barley with its distinctive smell and flavor, laying the groundwork for a powerful whiskey. After drying the barley, the malt is double-distilled in small, copper pot stills, before coming to rest in casks that were formerly used to age bourbon.

Inspired by Ireland’s ancient distilling traditions, Connemara’s smooth sweet malt taste and complex peat flavors makes it a truly unique Irish whiskey.” Connemara is renown for being one of the most decorated Irish whiskeys on the market, with a dossier of Gold Medals including the honor of once being named the “Worlds Best Irish Single Malt.”
