Tyrconnell Original Single Malt Irish Whiskey, 70 cl

Product Information

Bourbon is a style of whiskey that must be produced in the United States. Unlike other whiskeys, bourbon must be made according to specific regulations. These include a mash bill composed of at least 51 percent corn, the strength at which it is distilled and bottled, and aging in new, charred oak barrels. Ireland also has its own local version of "moonshine," an unaged whiskey called potcheen (also spelled poitín or poteen). Because it's not aged for three years, it can’t legally have “Irish whiskey” on the label, but it is another type of whiskey made in Ireland.

For a world-class whiskey that's worth every penny, we recommend the renowned Redbreast 15 Year Irish Whiskey. For a more affordable dram great for mixing or sipping, try Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey. FAQs What is Irish whiskey? The Tyrconnell Whiskey Awards".

Sometimes the grains are fermented and distilled individually and blended afterward, and sometimes they're combined before fermentation.

For instance, bourbon has a classic whiskey taste, rye whiskey is spicy, Canadian whisky and Irish whiskey tend to be very smooth, and Scotch can be smoky. These generalizations can vary from one brand to the next, though as you explore whiskeys, you’ll likely develop a preference for one or two styles.

Irish law dictates that whiskey must be aged for at least three years to bear the name "Irish whiskey," but that's only the minimum. Longer-aged bottlings are typically between 10 and 20 years old, but there are rare (and very expensive) expressions out there that have aged for 50 years or even longer. If you see an age on the label, that's the minimum amount of time every drop of the whiskey has spent in wood—it could potentially be a blend that also includes older spirits. Cooley Distillery is an Irish whiskey distillery on the Cooley Peninsula in County Louth, Ireland founded in 1987 and owned by Beam Suntory. [5] The brand also produces single cask expressions.
