Father’s Day is around the corner and many of us are scrambling to find the perfect present for our amazing dads! Never fear though, because Irish Drink Shop is here to give you some inspiration for the ideal gift that’s sure to put a smile on his face. We also have a large selection of gift ideas for your grandad or just for the father figure in your life. 




1) Thin Lizzy Irish Whiskey

One of Ireland's most legendary rock bands has their very own whiskey and we couldn't be more excited! Thin Lizzy members Scott Gorham and Brian Downey, along with Phillip Lynott’s family members Caroline, Sarah and Cathleen immersed themselves over a 2 year period in a fantastic collaboration with West Cork Distillers. Bottled at a smooth 40%, it's made with an unusual blend of grain and malt Irish Whiskies and finished in double charred oak casks. Expect lots of vanilla sweetness balanced out with light smokiness. One for fans of whiskey and the band!


€42.00 | ABV 40%




2) Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy Single Pot Still

Midleton Very Rare Barry Crockett Legacy was created to commemorate the career of the former master distiller who retired in 2013 after 47 years at the distillery. Barry was a key figure in formulating this single pot still. The spirit is mostly matured in 1st fill bourbon casks with a small amount going into virgin American oak. This is a no age statement but some of the whiskey used is dated at around 25 years. 


ABV 46% | € 250.00




3) Mr L's Whiskey Sour

A crowd-pleaser that's already made! Made from high-quality whiskey, tart lemon juice, bitters and sweet syrup, it's perfect for parties and get-togethers!


€24.50 | ABV 15%




4) Pangur Irish Poitín Stout Cask Rested

Made from a 50-50 marriage of two Irish Poitíns from two iconic distilleries, one big, one tiny, just across a lough from each other. One to enjoy neat, in your favorite poitin-based cocktail, or whenever really!


€47.00 | ABV 47%




5) Celtic Cask Daichead a Ceathair (44) 2014 PX Finish

Celtic Cask 44 was purchased in May 2014 and was triple distilled at a very old distillery in the north of Ireland. It was first matured in a French virgin oak cask that we sourced from  Ermitage Tonnellerie and was Bertranges Medium Toast. This was one of our first experiences with virgin oak and we kept a careful eye on the spirit as it took on lots of colour & flavours. In December 2021, we moved the whiskey to a 15 year-old Pedro Ximenez cask we’d sourced from Montilla.  We feel the mix of virgin oak & sweet pedro ximenez has created a rich, tasty whiskey and whilst younger than most Celtic Casks we felt it was ready to be enjoyed. It’s bottled at cask strength with no added colouring. Limited to just 190 bottles.


€120.00 | ABV 55.34%




6) The Lost Explorer Mezcal Espadin


From the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico comes this sweet and herbaceous award-winning Mezcal! This release is bound to delight fans of the spirit with its well-balanced with hints of red apple, ripe fruits, and a mild smoky layer to finish.


€65.00 | ABV 42%




7) Uais Irish Whiskey + FREE POWER BANK

An exciting triple blend of Pot Still, Single Malt & Grain Whiskeys, aged in Ex-Bourbon & Virgin Oak casks. This whiskey is named for Cairel Colla Uais: one of the famed Three Collas, brothers who once ruled ancient Ireland. Against tradition, Uais overthrew the sitting monarch and ruled as High King for four short but glorious years. It is in that spirit UAIS is created: A whiskey that honours the past but moves in bold new directions, presenting opportunities for new ideas, new flavours and new traditions. As an extra special Father's Day promotion there is a branded Ahascragh power bank included with each bottle for a limited time only!


€42.00| ABV 43%




8) Anima An/2

A blend that demonstrates the true varieties of the island of Mallorca! Made from a blend of 65% Callet, 20% Manto-Negro - Fogoneu, and 15% Syrah. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for 13 months. The end result gives us a smooth, balanced, flavoursome, and silky wine with great flavours of balsamic and mineral hints and a finish of fresh vegetables.


€32.00 | ABV 13%

Introducing the second Teeling Chestnut Cask release in collaboration with Celtic Whiskey Shop!
