The taste of the Atlantic Ocean from Ireland.

The Scully family has been farming on the southwest coast of Ireland for 9 generations. Their family farm might have been small but the family’s dream was big – yet not too big, evidently. The family founded the Clonakilty Distillery in the heart of Clonakilty town at the waterfront of the Atlantic Ocean where they take the best local natural resources – prime land, pristine water, and salty sea air – and transform them into fine Irish Whiskey, aged by the sea. Their range is truly an expression of the terroir as even the barley comes exclusively from their own barley farm.

Clonakilty Galley Head Single Malt Irish Whiskey was inspired by the Galley Head Lighthouse that watches over their fields at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. A premium Single Malt, it’s aged and finished in their Atlantic Ocean warehouse in a combination of oak casks, re-toasted Wine barrel, and Bordeaux Red Wine barrels. The result is a complex maritime Whiskey with notes of oak spice, red berries, dark chocolate, and an insanely long, smooth finish.

There are many Irish Whiskey varieties: grain Whiskey, malted barley pot-still-distilled, and ‘pure pot-still’ or ‘single pot still’ as it is now officially known. Then there is Poitin, one of the first Spirits ever made.
Poteen is a Whiskey made from potatoes, or in other words: it's Irish Vodka.
In the U.S., Irish Whiskey sales have jumped by over 500% since 2002. It’s the fastest growing category in the Spirits industry. There’s some news to raise your glass to.
Whiskey producers lose on average about 2% of their stock a year to angels' share. For Jameson, the biggest one of the Irish Whiskey brands, it means 29 thousand bottles going into the air (literally) every day!
Irish Coffee recipe: 1 cup freshly brewed strong coffee, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 3-4 tablespoons Irish Whiskey, heavy cream - slightly whipped.
Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
