Running from the 23rd-31st July, Belfast Whiskey Week is Ireland’s largest whiskey festival and the world’s largest festival of Irish Whiskey. So naturally, Jay Bradley and the Craft Whiskey Boys couldn’t pass up the chance to host a number of events, tastings and discussions to showcase the exciting resurgence of Irish Whiskey. Alongside three headline events with the Craft Whiskey Boys and The Craft Irish Whiskey Co., Belfast Whiskey Week will feature a virtual marketplace and a product display of The Emerald Isle, The Devil’s Keep, and The Brollach. Now is your chance to get up close to the most expensive whiskey in the world – The Emerald Isle. Containing a first-of-its-kind Celtic Egg from Fabergé, this marks the first time the egg will have been on view in Ireland.
