Connemara Original, 40%, 0.7 l

Connemara Original is a 40% ABV single malt Irish whiskey in a 0.7L bottle, featuring a unique smokiness for the Irish style and a smooth blend of smoke, sweet fruit and vanilla flavors.

This whiskey is one of the few peated single malts produced in Ireland, inspired by the 18th century tradition of drying malt over peat fires. This method gives it a light but distinctive smoky profile, combined with the mild sweetness and fruity nuances typical of Irish whiskey.

In a glass, the drink has a light golden color. The aroma reveals sweet water, barley malt and subtle peat smoke, as well as light notes of vanilla and fresh fruit, creating a warm and pleasant bouquet.

The taste is balanced and smooth, with sweet, honeyed and fruity accents gradually transitioning into a gentle peaty smokiness with grassy and woody undertones. The aftertaste is quite long, pleasant and not too heavy, with a light smoky note, making this a great choice for those who want a light but expressive peated Irish whiskey experience.

This whiskey is well suited both for enjoyment neat and for gentle dilution with water or ice, which helps to reveal all the nuances of the aroma.
