Origin II

In 1952, American journalist Stan delnplane landed at Shannon Airport in western Ireland. Low temperatures and strong winds delayed his voyage to the United States. Stan asked the bartender at the cocktail bar in the waiting hall what he would advise himself to drink in that weather. The bartender made a hot drink, and Stan felt great after tasting it, so he asked the bartender what it was. The bartender said it was our coffee, and we called it Irish coffee. [3]

When Stan returned to San Francisco, he gave the cocktail recipe to his favorite bar, Buena Vista. The success of Irish coffee belongs to the Buena Vista bar, which has a contract with Irish Distillers to supply Irish Whiskey. In this case, the company decided to create a special whisky variety to make Irish coffee cocktails and named it after the bar, Buena Vista.
