THE DEAD RABBIT IRISH WHISKEY LAUNCHES IN SA
The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey is the most disruptive thing to happen in the Irish whiskey industry. Irish whiskey has seen a major distilling revival and growth against Scotch whisky. Drawing its inspiration from the notorious Irish street gang in New York City in the 1800s, The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey made its South African debut in March 2020. The Dead Rabbit is for the rebels, the rejects, the misunderstood.
The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey is a new super-premium quality Irish whiskey that aims to capture all the edge and attitude of the legendary and award-winning Irish bar of the same name, located in downtown Manhattan, New York City. It is a five-year old blend featuring Irish malt and grain whiskey, matured in bourbon casks for five years before being rested in virgin American oak, crafted by master distiller Darryl McNally in collaboration with founders Jack McGarry and Sean Muldoon. The Dead Rabbit Irish Whiskey is best enjoyed on the rocks, as the base for mixed drinks or even in an Irish coffee. Available at all major retailers and wholesalers.
