What particularly drew attention at this event was the premium Irish whiskey "Clonakilty." Kennedy House Spirits debuted Clonakilty for the first time in the country. The Clonakilty distillery produces Irish whiskey based on its unique environment and philosophy, influenced by the harsh winds of the Atlantic and barley harvested from fields atop cliffs. It is known for making innovative and diverse attempts while adhering to traditional Irish whiskey.

In the country, three types of whiskey including single pot still, port cask, and Galley Head, as well as a limited edition product co-developed with the YouTuber "술익는집 (Soolikneun Jip)," are currently sold at Daily Shot.

At the Bar and Spirits Show, Kennedy House Spirits showcased a variety of brands alongside Clonakilty, including ▲ Cane and Grain independent bottling whiskey ▲ L'Encantada Armagnac ▲ Père Magloire Calvados ▲ Pusser's Rum ▲ Lighthouse whiskey.

Lighthouse whiskey attracted many visitors with signature cocktails sold at a cocktail booth operated in collaboration with the popular bar NOTES in Hyochang Park.

The master class conducted by Fiona Flavin, the APAC sales manager for Clonakilty, and Andy Yoon, the brand ambassador for Kennedy House Spirits, received a great response.

A representative of Kennedy House Spirits noted, "It was meaningful to be able to meet and talk directly with many enthusiasts at the Seoul Bar and Spirits Show this year," and added, "I hope many customers had the chance to experience various premium spirits."
