The Connemara 12 Years Old Peated is one of the oldest bottlings from the distillery (there is also a 22-year-old version) and is produced using small batches of carefully selected casks. Additionally, it undergoes extra aging in American oak barrels. The result is a complex and sophisticated whiskey, with peaty and spicy notes.
