This 2012 vintage, 13-year-old Cooley Single Grain Irish Whiskey was bottled at 58%, after finishing in a Passito De Pantelleria Dessert Wine for 9 months. The whisky is a collaboration with Dark Cloud Whisky.
Producer Description
"This cask was chosen by Dark Cloud Whisky (Sean Kincaid) & White Cloud Productions (Jeremy Pue) to reflect their friendship & bond through both ancestral heritage and a mutual respect for Irish Whiskey. This particular whiskey was finished in a Passito De Pantelleria Dessert Wine cask and the result is a delightful dram with a floral & sweet nose along with with some honeysuckle notes. On the palate there is some spice up front but the dessert wine cask really shows with a very smooth finish."

This 21 year old Irish Whiskey from That Boutique-y Whisky Company is part of their core range. Although some sources indicate it is a Blended Irish Whiskey, the image on the label is a Connemara Pony... so could this be from Cooley Distillery?! Bottled at 45.8% from Bourbon & Sherry Casks.
Producer Description
"Galloping toward your gullet, here comes our lovely horse (It’s a Connemara Pony).
"This is an extraordinary Irish Whiskey, aged to perfection over 21 years in a delightful marriage of ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks. It delivers an elegant symphony of honeyed malt, dried fruits, and toasted oak, with undertones of dark chocolate, fig, and baking spices. A small batch release of circa 1,000 litres each time. Non chill-filtered, and natural cask matured colour."

This is the cask strength version of Redbreast 12 Year. This single or pure pot still Irish whiskey is triple distilled from a mash of malted and unmalted barley.
What is Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey you ask? It is whiskey made using a combination of malted and unmalted barley. Why do this you ask? Why, to dodge unfair taxation, of course! The Malt Tax came into being in Ireland for a short time starting in 1785, enforced by the (insert expletive said in your best Irish accent here) English. The Irish, being Irish, decided that they didn't need to use malted barley for the entirety of the mash used to distill whiskey and started adding portions of unmalted barley. Necessity being the mother of invention, this eventually became a legitimate style of whiskey-making that is now not just celebrated but codified into law in Ireland with the Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey classification.
Producer Description
"Made from a mash of malted and unmalted barley and then triple distilled in copper pot stills, Redbreast 12 boasts the flavour complexity and distinctive qualities of Pot Still whiskey. Matured in a combination of Bourbon seasoned American Oak barrels and Oloroso Sherry seasoned Spanish oak butts, the distinctive Redbreast sherry style is a joy to behold in each and every bottle. The Cask Strength expression gives a glimpse of Redbreast 12 in its natural, full flavoured taste."
