Glendalough Double Barrel Whiskey, a key ingredient in this cocktail, holds a rich history deeply rooted in the enchanting surroundings of the Glendalough Valley in County Wicklow, Ireland. This small but vibrant region has been producing exceptional whiskey since the 6th century when St. Kevin first established a monastic settlement amidst the serene landscape. The Glendalough distillery, inspired by this ancient heritage, crafts its whiskey with passion, using traditional methods and locally sourced ingredients. The result is a smooth and full-bodied spirit that perfectly complements the flavors of our Irish Coffee Colada.
Sip and savor this extraordinary libation, as you embark on a taste adventure that harmoniously marries the classic warmth of Irish coffee with the lusciousness of a cold tropical colada. Unleash your inner explorer and let the Irish Coffee Colada transport you to a world where tradition meets innovation, and every sip is a celebration of flavor.
