Tyrconnell Single Malt Irish Whiskey 0,7 l

Irish Single Malt Whiskey, 40%vol

Tyrconnell is a historic Irish whiskey brand from the 1900’s that was named after a very famous racehorse that won a legendary race at odds of 100 to 1. Cooley is extremely proud of being able to resurrect Tyrconnell Single Malt and of keeping it independent, thereby enabling it to maintain its authenticity. The inspirational image of the Tyrconnell racehorse that so defied the odds can be still seen on the label to this day.

The Tyrconnell Single Malt Irish whiskey is characterised by its elegant and balanced taste profile. It retains the smooth, sweet taste normally associated with Irish whiskey but with its own distinctive character. The result is Tyrconnell's beautiful fresh, malty, fruity bouquet, smooth sweet taste and delicate dry finish.

In a world dominated by faceless multinational corporations, Cooley takes great pride in its authenticity, passion and drive to develop the Irish whiskey industry. Prior to the founding of Cooley in 1987 the Irish whiskey industry was completely controlled by one company. They dictated what Irish whiskey was and how it was sold around the world. The dominance of this monopoly meant that consumers were starved of choice due to a lack of innovation coupled with many of the historic brands from Irish whiskey's golden past being mothballed.

Cooley is extremely proud of being able to resurrect some of these historic brands, in particular the Kilbeggan and Tyrconnell Irish whiskey brands and keeping them Independent to maintain their authenticity. Cooley will continue to invest in both these brands as well as the Old Kilbeggan Distillery in order to bring them back to their former glory.

Irish whiskey is now predominately controlled by the two largest spirits companies in the world, Diageo and Pernod Ricard. Their corporate focus is on single brands within specific categories. As Ireland's only Irish owned independent whiskey distillery, Cooley strives to provide the choice consumers crave.

This can be seen through its dedication to developing the Irish Single Malt category and leading innovation through reviving old techniques and experimentation. Examples of this can be seen in the revival of the ancient practice of drying malted barley with the smoke from peat as seen in the range of Connemara Peated Single Malts or creating new categories such as our range of Greenore Irish Single Grains or Tyrconnell Aged Wood Finishes.
