West Cork Distillers attends the Bord Bia Christmas Trade Reception in Paris

Sarah Phelan from Bord Bia Ireland extended a warm invitation to West Cork Distillers and West Cork Irish Whiskey to partake in Bord Bia’s Christmas reception in Paris during the week of December 11th. This gathering served as an excellent platform to introduce West Cork Distillers and their Irish Whiskey to the 200 attendees, comprising a diverse audience of French retailers and Irish producers.

Notably, the event facilitated a significant meeting between West Cork Irish Whiskey and their newly established French distributor, La Martiniquaise. At the event, West Cork Irish Whiskey presented La Martiniquaise with a thoughtful gift—a beautifully engraved whiskey decanter. John O Connell, the CEO of West Cork Distillers, expressed his delight at the opportunity to meet the owner of La Martiniquaise during this special occasion.
