Limerick whiskey and Limerick city share a bold and bright character. Creatives here are finding colour in the old grimness and painting over the city’s cracks in technicolour! Inspired by this, we’re doing unexpected, bold, creative things that whiskies don’t normally do. We’re adopting a lifestyle first brand approach, supported by quality liquid.

Limerick Whiskey is a classic, straight up blended Irish whiskey - aged in bourbon casks and finished in sherry casks and rye casks (a highly novel finish in Irish Whiskey but a popular flavour profile in North America). That all sounds fancy, but this is an unfussy quality whiskey from an unfussy quality place.
