Irish whiskey is a dark distilled spirit made using triple distillation from a yeast-fermented mash of malted cereal grains, such as corn, rye, wheat, and barley. It is rich in zinc, iron, phosphorus, thiamine, niacin, vitamins, minerals, ellagic acid, and other essential nutrients. It also has antioxidants which are compounds that help protect the body against damage from free radicals. It aids in promoting relaxation, improving digestion, and minimizing the risk of developing pneumonia, hypertension, tuberculosis, obesity, and heart diseases. At present, key players operating worldwide are introducing novel variants, such as apple, berries, mint, spiced, coffee, and honey, to expand their product portfolio.
