Kilbeggan® Irish Whiskey Cocktails

By Adam Rains

Kilbeggan®, produced at the oldest operating distillery in Ireland, is double-distilled in order to retain more flavor. Its double distillation creates a smooth, more approachable flavor profile but with a bold, distinctive character that makes it an ideal spirit for both whiskey aficionados and novice drinkers alike. At 80 proof, Kilbeggan® is highly versatile whiskey that bodes well neat (or on the rocks) as well as in your favorite cocktail.
