Connemara

Before coal was widely imported to Ireland the local natural fuel of peat – or turf as it’s also known – was used extensively in the distillation of whiskey to dry the cereal crops used and to fire the still. Over the last century this ancient practice was lost until Cooley revived this tradition and released its range of Connemara Peated Single Malts. Connemara is Cooley’s most celebrated whiskey winning a Gold Medal in every International competition it has ever entered.
