Whiskey: Slieve Foy 8 Year Old Single Malt Irish
This whiskey was produced at the Cooley Distillery until 2011 when Beam Global, the owners of Jim Beam, purchased the distillery and decided to focus more on their larger brand holdings. This is a non-chill-filtered single malt aged for 8 years in American white oak bourbon barrels. Whiskeys from the Cooley Distillery were generally distilled twice as opposed to to three times which is common for most Irish whiskeys.

Detailed Description
As of 2013, Slieve Foy Single Malt Irish Whiskey, named for the rugged, majestic highest mountain peak in the Cooley range in Northern Ireland, is no longer being made. Beam Global, Makers of Jim Beam products, had previously purchased formerly independent producer Cooley Distillery and in the process stopped production on the smaller brands, focusing instead on the more profitable, large production Kilbeggan brand, working to position it as an international competitor against Jameson.
Slieve Foy 8 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: Odors of dry forest moss and green hay mingle with a lightly herbaceous note. On this finish, it’s earthy and lightly woodsy, like the light underbrush near an orange tree.
Palate: This single malt is bitter, herbaceous, but delightfully so. It’s grassy, with flavors of hard candy, Pernod, and dry rosemary bark.
Finish: This pleasant, refreshing, spicy, and lightly woodsy finish lingers for a long time.
