A little about the brand:

Walsh Whiskey Distillery first opened its doors back in 1999. The distillery was created by Bernard and Rosemary Walsh, who as a family business have dedicated their work to reviving the old Irish whiskey tradition, and it must be said that they succeeded in this!
They write themselves: “We create modern innovations and expressions, to the delight of palates around the world, using ancient recipes from Ireland’s golden era of whiskey distillation… Our philosophy is supported by our family motto Never Say Die. This robust motto, our passion, innovation, as well as attention to detail, drive our family dream to create a legacy of fantastic whiskies.”
