It is a family business dedicated to reviving Irish whisky as one of the world’s most appreciated spirits.

The Irishman and Writer’s Tears offer different taste profiles and are unique through the recreation of traditional Irish whisky recipes from the 19th Century, Ireland’s golden era of whisky distilling. Writer’s Tears is inspired by the deep, lasting bond with creative thinkers and artists that defined the Irish culture in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Many great writers would take refuge in their local public house to draw inspiration from the observations of daily lives while enjoying the comfort of their favourite dram of Irish whisky.
