Connemara, one of the dozens of so-called. whiskey brands from the Cooley Distillery portfolio debuted in December 1995 and completely overturned the stereotype of the profile of Irish whiskey.
Twice distilled from malt with a concentration of phenol compounds of about 20ppm, it was in no way compatible with Jameson or Bushmills, which set the standards for whiskey from the “Green Island”. To this day, Connemara remains the only widely available Irish whiskey with a smoky-peat profile. Its “peatness” differs significantly from single malts in the Islay islands, showing herbal-floral features. The standard edition of Connemara presented here contains whisky aged in American oak barrels.
Aroma: mild and fresh, lapsang souchong tea, seaweed, pears, apples, lemons, vanilla, moist hay, a pinch of pepper and oak shavings.
Flavor: delicately peaty, vanilla, honey, apples, pears, grapefruit, pinch of ginger and pepper, notes of hay and oak.
Finish: medium long, with notes of peat smoke, fruit from the village orchard, a mixture of dried herbs and oak.

PRODUCENT - Whisky
The whiskey most likely comes from Ireland. Irish monks were making a liquor known as aqua vitae (the Gaelic name uisge beatha is a translation from Latin) as early as the 7th century. It was a mixture obtained by distillation of fruit fermentation products and used exclusively for medicinal purposes as a means of prolonging life, relieving some ailments (such as colic) and diseases (paralysis, smallpox and others). According to legend, whiskey was invented by St. Patrick. From the 17th century, the shortened form uiskie began to be used, and from around 1715 the name took the form of whiskie. The modern name - whiskey - was established only in 1736. Only high-quality glass is used in professional whiskey tastings. The so-called popular tulip glasses, the shape of which allows you to retain the aroma of whiskey, which is important during tasting. During the tasting, apart from the smell, the taste on the tongue, the finish and the balance of the whole are also assessed, often on a scale of 100 points. The whiskey served may be slightly diluted with water, which reduces the intensity of the flavor. It is also popular to serve whiskey with ice (on the rocks) or with cola, but the latter can be controversial.
