Ballyhoo Irish Whiskey

Raise a glass to exuberant moments that become enduring memories with Ballyhoo Irish Whiskey, a 4-year old grain whiskey that is finished in port barrels from The Connacht Whiskey Company Ltd. available in the U.S. starting in March of 2018.

Hand-bottled at Connacht’s distillery in the rugged west of Ireland, Ballyhoo Irish Whiskey (43% ABV) embodies the best of the word’s meaning: an exclamation of triumph over the rival team; a rallying cry between lifelong friends; a toast to a difficult journey or a hard-fought victory. Ballyhoo begins as a sourced Irish whiskey with a mash bill of 93% corn imported from France and 7% malted barley that we bring to our distillery to further age and finish in used port barrels from Portugal. This second step softens the grain whiskey and rounds out the flavour into an easy sipper. We do not add artificial color or caramel, so the product remains quite light in appearance, but with some reddish undertones from the port.
