Connemara Peated is a unique Irish single malt produced at the Cooley Distillery, founded in 1987 in County Louth, Ireland. Unlike most Irish whiskies, which are traditionally unpeated and triple‑distilled for smoothness, Connemara stands out as one of the very few peated Irish whiskies available on the market. Inspired by traditional 19th‑century Irish distilling methods, it brings a smoky character more commonly associated with Scotch whiskies from Islay, while retaining the smoothness and elegance of Irish whiskey.
This expression is bottled at 40% ABV and presented in a 70cl format. It is double‑distilled, which allows more robust flavors to shine through compared to the lighter triple‑distilled style typical of Ireland. Matured in oak casks, Connemara Peated develops a balance of sweet malt, vanilla, and fruit notes alongside its signature peat smoke.
On the nose, it offers aromas of gentle smoke, honey, and orchard fruit. The palate is smooth yet complex, with flavors of sweet malt, vanilla, spice, and a warming peat character. The finish is long and smoky, with lingering sweetness. This makes Connemara Peated a fascinating bridge between Irish whiskey tradition and Scotch whisky influence.
