Connemara Peated Malt Whiskey

Connemara Peated Single Malt is a pioneering Irish whiskey from the Cooley Distillery in County Louth, and the first peated malt to be produced in modern Ireland. The malted barley is dried over peat fires, so the smoke rises through the grain and gives the whiskey its distinctive peaty aroma, a style far more often associated with Scotch. It is bottled at 40% ABV.

Expect apple crumble and peat smoke on the nose, with a smoky, kippery edge. On the palate, the peat is balanced by honey, sweet barley, vanilla and light spice, making it an approachable introduction to peated whiskey for the adventurous drinker.
