 Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey is another fine offering from the Cooley distillery. Kilbeggan is Gaelic for "little church". Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey first appeared as a John Locke's brand over 100 years ago and was sold successfully until Locke's distillery ceased production in the 1953. Drawing on centuries of tradition and craft, Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey is distilled from the purest clear water and the finest malted Irish barley and maize, gently matured for long years in oak casks in the ancient warehouses in Kilbeggan and skilfully blended to create a whiskey of unique smoothness, character and balance. Cooley relaunched the Kilbeggan brand in 1994 and it has had continued success in the market place. On the nose there are traces of sweet oloroso married harmoniously with sweet malt that over powers the clean grain. On the palate it is abundantly lush with sweet honey notes along the way. It finishes with a dryness and some oaky tones coming through at the very end. |
