Cooley Distillery - 9 medalhas de Ouro- IWSC 2008

Os últimos tempos tenho estado de volta dos whiskies irlandeses.
Primeiro com o Busmills (Black Bush), depois Connemara (Cask Strength), passando pelo Green Spot e mais recentemente o Knappogue Castle (1992).
Porém reparo que estou longe de ser o único!!!!.
A Cooley Distillery, acabou de ganhar 9 medalhas de Ouro no International Wine & Spirits Competition (IWSC) 2008.
Foi a primeira vez que tal facto ocorreu.
Segundo Jack Teeling, Director de Marketing da Cooley: “2008 has been our most successful year to date. Winning 21 Gold Medals, between the IWSC and San Francisco World Spirits Competition, in the year of our 21st birthday, shows how our distillery and our whiskey has truly come of age”.
