Notes - The newly released Connemara 12 Year Old is already causing a stir among whiskey connoisseurs worldwide after scooping a Gold Medal at the World Spirit Competition in San Francisco in March 2004. Reflecting the region of Connemara, this magnificent 12 Year Old revives the age-old tradition and heritage of drying malted barley over peat fires. To the smooth, balanced malt and peat flavours of Connemara Peated Single Malt is added the lingering wood after taste to produce a whiskey of great complexity and sophistication. Tasting notes by Jim Murray, renowned Whiskey Commentator - Colour: A pale golden colour. Nose: An expressive nose with a vibrant presence of peat. Taste: Smooth, silky taste with a superb mix of fruit and peat. Round and full character with tantalizing traces of almond, marzipan and biscuit. Finish: A strong spicy bite to the finish that is dominated by an extraordinary peat explosion spreading across the mouth leaving a long luxurious finish on the palate.
