Verallia Announces Golden Ticket Winner

Verallia (formerly Allied Glass) are delighted to announce the winner of its 2021 Golden Ticket Competition, the fantastic team at the Sliabh Liag Distillery, creators of some of the finest Irish whiskies, gin and vodka.

Launched at the Craft Distilling Expo in London last October, Verallia’s Golden Ticket Competition offers the lucky winner the opportunity to create their own bespoke bottle.  This is a truly amazing prize where the successful applicant is given the opportunity to work with one of the Verallia team’s award-winning designers to go from the initial concept stage, developing a design which perfectly suits the brand to the manufacture stage of beautiful glass bottles with the project costs, including a set of mould equipment, being completely free of charge.

Nolan Kane, Verallia’s Head of Emerging Brands, says:

“Craft distillers from all over the UK, Europe and the rest of the world, have supported our Golden Ticket Competition with over 150 tickets having been completed and returned.  This is amazing and I would like to thank all those who entered.”

The winner was drawn in December by Verallia’s CEO, Alan Henderson, who said:

“As the craft distilling industry continues to take the UK by storm with gins, rums, vodkas and whiskies being created by creative entrepreneurs, Verallia has become a trusted supplier to this diverse and energetic industry thanks to our creative design which is supported by a commitment to flexible manufacturing, inspirational decoration and comprehensive customer support   It is therefore a very exciting time for craft distilling and Allied Glass and we very much look forward to working with Rory Steel and his team, winners of our 2021 Golden Ticket competition.”

We cannot wait to see what the team come up with when working with Sliabh Liag Distillery. Keep your eyes peeled for updates on the process and of course, the final bottle once production commences!

If you would be interested in working with the Verallia team yourself, please don’t hesitate to contact our team!

Poitin is a traditional Irish spirit, typically distilled between 40%-70% ABV that dates back to 1st Century AD. Historically the spirit was outlawed in Ireland as a result of taxation in 1661, but more recently has had a revival, being legalised in 1997. Poitin carries an abundance of Irish heritage, being made with native ingredients such as barley, potatoes, and oats. Today Poitin is quickly gaining popularity, as it’s exported across countries, telling its story across borders. Embodying Irish craftsmanship, @DrinkMadMarchHare_ celebrates heritage in every bottle. They expertly produce smooth, authentic poitin, encompassed in a decadent glass bottle created by Verallia. Today marks an artistry that is often described as ‘fiercely Irish’. Happy International Poitin Day, sláinte! #Poitin #InternationalPoitinDay #SpiritSector #IrishSpirits
