About this product
Refined peat. Rich malt. A truly rare Irish dram.
Connemara 12 Year Old is a distinctive peated single malt Irish whiskey — a rare style in Ireland, where smoky whiskies are the exception. Aged for 12 years in oak barrels, this expression from the Cooley Distillery offers a complex balance of soft smoke, rich fruit, and silky malt sweetness.
Triple-distilled and non-chill filtered, Connemara 12 is a bold yet approachable whiskey that brings together the richness of age and the allure of peat. It’s a standout for fans of smoky drams, offering a uniquely Irish take on a traditionally Scottish flavour profile — elegant, smooth, and full of character.
Why we love it:
Connemara 12 is a true outlier in the Irish whiskey world — gently peated, beautifully aged, and unmistakably refined. A must-try for fans of smoky whiskies and collectors seeking something unique in the Irish single malt landscape.
