18th of November marks International Poitin Day. 18th of November marks International Poitin Day. 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
