GREENORE SINGLE GRAIN IRISH WHISKEY A unique whiskey being an Irish Single Grain with a distinctive character Greenore
is distinctive in that it is a Single Grain 8 Year old Irish Whiskey.
It
is distilled at Cooley Distillery with pure water and fine high quality grains.
Later sent to mature in our 200 year old warehouses, in Kilbeggan.
These combined expertise create the taste of vanilla and honeyed
sweetness that emanates from its many years of maturing in rum and bourbon oak
casks. Its silky smooth and robust
character is a truly delightful experience to the discerning drinker. The unique and exceptional quality of Greenore
Single Grain was recognised this year as it was awarded a gold medal in the
2002 International Wine and Spirits Competition. Tasting notes of Noel Sweeney,
Cooley Master Blender Nose:
Clean
light grain, with honey and oak characters Taste:
Silky smooth and mellow with honey start combined with fresh almonds and
spices to create this delicate balance Finish:
Warm honey taste lingering in the mouth with a dry finish. Serving
Suggestions:
Greenore Single Grain can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks or with water to
release the bouquet or as you like it. Endorsements:
“This is a really light
whiskey with a delicately perfumed flowery aroma.
Then the nose expands to reflect the oak casks in which the whiskey has
matured with vanilla and green wood notes. The
lightness of the nose is reflected on the tongue.
The delicate flowery elements unfold to create a whiskey with a
well-rounded depth of character. There
is a little cinnamon and allspice in the mouth and a hint of fruit.
The sweetness lingers on the tongue but there is a surprise in the finish
which is dry and full of spice”. Helen
Arthur, author of The Single Malt Whiskey Companion. “Greeenore
has worked well for Cooley Distillery, it is sweet and unctuous”.
