Unopened bottles can be stored indefinitely in a cool place out of direct light, and the whiskey inside will not change. Once opened, you might notice some subtle flavor changes if the bottle isn’t sealed properly or the whiskey isn’t consumed within a few years. The only real concern about whiskey going bad is with flavored whiskeys because some include ingredients that may deteriorate over time, though even that is rare. Individual item awards for Cooley's products include an IWSC "Best in Class" for Kilbeggan in 2005, [19] an IWSC Gold Medal for The Tyrconnell in 2004 [20] IWSC Gold Medal and Best in Class in 2010 for Greenore, and a World Whiskies Awards Best in Class in 2011 and 2012 for Greenore. That loyalty to the heritage of Irish whiskey-making has meant that even A. A. Watt would recognise the modern version of Tyrconnell; the bottle still bears the same commemorative label celebrating fateful stallions's triumph in 1876, and spirit makes for an absolutely smashing dram, like I'm sure it did then... A real dark horse, if you will?*

Malted barley—barley that's been allowed to sprout and then dried—is a very common ingredient, as it contains an enzyme that helps break down starches into fermentable sugars. If a whiskey is called a "single malt," that means it's made from 100 percent malted barley, at one individual distillery, while a "single grain" whiskey is made at a single distillery but can use a mix of barley and other grains, such as corn or wheat. Aside from moonshine, whiskey is typically aged for at least a few years. The time spent in the barrel mellows the flavor, imparts vanilla and oak tones to the whiskey, and gives the spirit its golden color. While many pricier whiskeys clearly state how long they are aged, it’s common for budget whiskeys to forgo an age statement. This may be because it’s a blend of whiskeys of various ages or that the brand doesn’t want to promote a young whiskey. When shopping for whiskey on a budget, don’t worry too much about how old it is because you may not always find the answer.

Way better than whiskeys like Jameson, Bushmills, or the Tullamore DEW are the most recognizable Irish Whiskeys, but short of the Writers’ Tears, Slane, and the Connemara that is crafted at the same distillery. FAQ: Tyrconnell Single Malt Whiskey This experience was a precursor to my venture into the liquor shop business, where I had the privilege of curating an extensive collection of liquors, granting me access to thousands of unique bottles from across the globe. For a world-class whiskey that's worth every penny, we recommend the renowned Redbreast 15 Year Irish Whiskey. For a more affordable dram great for mixing or sipping, try Teeling Small Batch Irish Whiskey. FAQs What is Irish whiskey? You are responsible for all activities through your account.

[3] The Tyrconnell Madeira finish was named by whiskey author Jim Murray as the Best Irish Whiskey of 2008 in his Whiskey bible. In this personal blog, I share my knowledge and insights on Whisky, Whiskey & Bourbon and other spirits, drawing from my 30 years of extensive experience. Irish whiskey must spend at least three years aging in oak barrels, but distilleries can use casks that formerly held anything from bourbon to sherry to beer. Whiskey usually goes into the barrel at fairly high proof and is then "cut" with water to bring it down to its final strength. Bottle proofs vary, but the minimum allowed by US law is 40 percent ABV, or 80-proof.
