From the editor

Hello and welcome to “Blends & Botanics”!

I’m delighted to introduce you to an editorial selection of some of Ireland’s finest craft spirits and distilleries, all sampled and reviewed via the palate (and noses!) of some passionate industry voices.

We take a browse around some fine establishments, from local whiskey specialist emporiums, to bespoke and traditional fine wine outlets. We travel across Ireland, Scotland, the UK, as well as Europe, to recce and interview “liquid” enthusiasts, procurer’s and traders. Our contributors will explore alcohol beverage industry trends, updates, and new discoveries.
