Spirited launch in Britain of unique box of local drinks and snacks

Food NI members are among a select group of local producers included in the first
Premium Irish Whiskey Box being distributed by the successful Craft Gin Club in
Britain and further afield.
Local snacks from members Forest Feast and Glens of Antrim are in the unique box
with two Irish whiskeys – peated malt blend and an innovative Dram in a Can, the
world’s first canned whiskey – from Two Stacks, another member, in Newry. Long
Meadow Cider’s Blossom Burst Cider from Loughall is also included. Long Meadow
is a Food NI member.
Based in London, the Craft Gin Club has over 100,000 members.
The box, in addition, features recipes for Irish whiskey cocktails such as the Irish
Highball.
Snacks to accompany the whiskey are Glens of Antrim’s pickled onion crisps from
Cushendall and Forest Feast’s chocolate cherries and smoked almonds and peanuts
from Craigavon.
