The Tyrconnell Single Malt Irish Whiskey is a time-honoured single malt Irish whiskey whose history dates back to 1876. At 43% ABV in a 0.7-litre bottle, this bottling commemorates the surprise victory of the racehorse Tyrconnell in the prestigious National Produce Stakes. The horse’s owner, R. M. Delamere, made history with this success and inspired the distiller A. A. Watt to dedicate a small-batch whisky to the winner. Originally intended as a one-off special edition, The Tyrconnell went on to become the distillery’s most successful whisky and was even considered, at times before Prohibition, to be the best-selling Irish whisky. Today, the brand is continued by the Kilbeggan Distilling Company, one of Ireland’s oldest whisky producers, which preserves traditional Irish whisky-making methods.


Unlike most Irish single malts, The Tyrconnell Single Malt is double-distilled. This comparatively rare production method preserves a great deal of the distillate’s character and results in a creamy, full-bodied texture with a pronounced malty profile. From the carefully selected barley malt right through to bottling, every stage of production influences the final flavour. The result is a well-balanced Irish single malt whisky that combines fresh citrus notes and honey with delicate malty aromas, and which delights both newcomers and experienced whisky enthusiasts alike with its elegant structure.
