West Cork Irish Whiskey recently attended Wine Paris & Vinexpo Paris in Paris from 12–14 February 2026, joining producers and trade representatives from across the global wine and spirits industry.
Over the three days, the team met with existing distributors and retail partners and connected with prospective customers across Europe, North America and Asia. The event provided an opportunity to review current market performance, discuss plans for the year ahead and explore distribution opportunities in key territories.
A selection of expressions from the West Cork Irish Whiskey portfolio was presented at the show, including core range bourbons and premium expressions. Discussions focused on category performance, premium positioning and opportunities within domestic retail and travel retail channels. There was continued interest from markets looking to develop their Irish whiskey offering.
