The Parlor @deadrabbitpub has just launched a new 22 cocktail with 15 Irish products featured, with 9 of those being Independently Irish-owned.

An awesome showcase of modern Irish spirits producers in NYC. I can't wait to see the menu in person.

Everyday is a real graft here at O’Connell whiskey. Lots of decisions to be made at every moment during the day. Very. Serious. Decisions.

While the 11,000 sq foot warehouse is impressive, we think the adjoining famine -era workhouse is just incredible!

We are working hard behind the scenes to be able to provide tours to our loyal friends and followers.
