The Whistler Irish Honey Whiskey
The Whistler Irish Honey Whiskey was a natural collaboration between the Cooney family beekeepers and a love for Irish whiskey. Using some of the finest ex-bourbon matured and sherry finished Irish Whiskey, this was then infused with honey, harvested from the Cooney's family orchards.
The Cooney Family are the 2nd largest hard cider producers in Ireland, which requires their orchards to be pollinated by millions of the Cooney’s own bees. Marie, the mother of the family, is the head bee keeper, and has been rapidly growing the bee population thanks to the success of the Whistler Honey Whiskey.
