Connemara 12 Year Old
Connemara 12 Year Old is a highly regarded, peated single malt Irish whiskey produced by the Cooley Distillery (part of the Kilbeggan Distilling Co.). Unlike most Irish whiskeys which are unpeated and triple-distilled, Connemara 12 is double-distilled and uses heavily peated malted barley, resulting in a flavor profile often described as "Irish whiskey meets Islay Scotch".

Nose: A light waft of campfire smoke and earthy peat merges with vibrant aromas of lemon zest, honeyed sweetness, and fresh orchard fruits like pear and apple
Palate: The entry is creamy and silkily smooth, balancing sweet flavors of vanilla fudge and malt with a sophisticated blend of rustic peat, subtle spice, and a hint of toasted nuts
Finish: The experience concludes with a long, satisfying fade of lingering peat smoke, charred oak, and a touch of tangy dried fruit and vanilla

Isle of Jura Superstition
Isle of Jura Superstition is a non-age-statement (NAS) single malt Scotch whisky produced at the Jura Distillery on the remote Isle of Jura off the west coast of Scotland. Renowned for its "subtly sweet yet smoky" profile, this whisky was designed as a balanced, lightly peated alternative to more intense Islay malts, acting as a bridge between delicate and heavily peated styles. The expression was officially discontinued in early 2018 as part of a brand range overhaul.

Palate: A pleasant, creamy texture brings light peat smoke forward, supported by sweet notes of honey, tropical fruit, and cinnamon spice
Finish: The finish is moderately long and spicy, leaving lingering notes of smoked nuts, salted fudge, and oak.
