IRISH Poitín
"It’s mighty stuff"
A Spirit Steeped in Legacy
In the shadow of Croagh Patrick, a legend was born. Our Irish Poitín, distilled from potato and malted barley, is more than a spirit—it’s a history.
On the label, you’ll see a photograph of an extraordinary woman: our founder’s grandmother. Known far and wide for crafting the smoothest, richest poitín, she became a local legend. Her craft was so exceptional that it caught the attention of the law. Arrested for distilling her prized poitín, her still was confiscated.
But the story doesn’t end there. Her spirit—both in character and in craft—was irresistible. Even the law officers couldn’t deny the quality of her work. Quietly, they returned her still, ensuring the poitín continued to flow. Her boldness, resilience, and talent inspired us to bring this legacy back to life in every bottle of Irish Poitín.
The Bold Taste of Tradition
At 53%, this poitín is not for the faint-hearted. Distilled with care and precision, it delivers a robust, clean taste with a warm finish that speaks to its heritage. Whether sipped neat or used as a base for inventive cocktails, it’s a drink that demands respect.
Why Poitín? Why Now?
For centuries, poitín has been a symbol of Irish defiance and ingenuity. By reviving this craft, we honour the untamed spirit of Ireland and our family’s incredible history. Each bottle of Irish Poitín is a tribute to those who dared to create, even when the odds were against them.
IRISH Poitín 50% 50cl
From St. Patrick’s Distillery Ltd. comes a spirit steeped in tradition and audacity. This Irish Poitín, distilled from the finest potatoes, is as bold and uncompromising as the story behind it. At 53%, it’s a spirit that commands respect—a tribute to the raw, untamed heart of Ireland.
But this isn’t just any poitín. On the label, you’ll see a photograph of a remarkable woman—our founder’s grandmother—whose legacy defines this bottle. She was famed in the Croagh Patrick region for making the smoothest, richest poitín anyone had ever tasted. Her craft was so celebrated that it couldn’t escape the law. Arrested for illegal distilling, she faced the confiscation of her cherished still.
