Few days off so time for a #TuesdayTipple. The trip to Tipp begins tomorrow 🥃Sláinte

Absolutely fab venue for a @TippDistillery tasting. Gorgeous room guys!!!

@FOIWhiskey @TippDistillery @thecowmanshow Erm. Like, that and his amazing personality and whiskey knowledge and overall fabulousness. Don't turn us down next time Michael!!!

@FOIWhiskey @TippDistillery @thecowmanshow Lol. Literally why he was asked though. 🤣

A special thanks to @thecowmanshow for MC’ing our Thursday tasting with @FOIWhiskey & for making us feel so welcome 🥃

And the winner is the Craigellachie Hogshead 🏆 Keep a note of this & thank future you in advance 😉🥃

A big thanks to @Jenscapades and the folks at @TippDistillery and co-host @thecowmanshow for a brilliant night with the @FOIWhiskey tasting of cask samples of what will become future Tipp whiskey, including their inaugural release in early '24. Sláinte mhaith 🥃 👍

Really looking forward to this - a couple of cracking spirits that we look forward to sharing 🥃😊

@Ballykilcavan We only had ours put in mid-april, so also just seeing the benefit now. They gave 42% of our mashing and distilling usage last week though. Incredible.

@Jenscapades They've made a huge difference to us this year. We only upgraded to 50kWp in October, so this is the first time we're seeing their full potential.

The new batch of solar panels faces SE, so on these sunny mornings, they're already generating enough power to run the brewery (on days we're not brewing) and visitor centre by 7am. On brew days, it just takes until 9am.

Some good news from my client @TippDistillery in today’s @IrishTimes 🥃☀️🌾 irishtimes.com/business/2023/…

@Bill_Linnane @GarethOrganic We're not situated well for wind unfortunately.

@GarethOrganic Think they only do two casks a week so a small operation. Wind power would suit Ireland better but assume outlay on building a mid size turbine would be bigger than installing solar.

@GarethOrganic @Bill_Linnane Only being able to distil very small batches is one of my biggest problems anyway. 🤣

@Bill_Linnane Great job, but solar will only ever supply enough power to distil very small batches.

Love a hip flask service!

Huge thanks to Conor & Alan @DistilledDublin last night for their hard work - turning around 200 glasses in a hurry is no easy feat 🥃 @Jenscapades #whiskey #irishwhiskey #tipperaryboutiquedistillery

A first sip of one of our exciting new makes ready for @Jenscapades to share at tonight’s @TippDistillery exclusive tasting in @DistilledDublin 😍🥃

@seaneensullivan @LMulliganGrocer So I could get a grant for 50% of €50k consultants time to tell me to put in solar panels, but I can't get a penny for the panels themselves. 🤣🤣🤣 Hilarious. If I don't laugh I'll cry.

We are currently doing an energy audit and hoping to reduce our emissions through energy use in @LMulliganGrocer. It is part of a decade long (so far) project to reduce our carbon footprint. I am having difficulty understanding why so much public money is being handed over

@Repealist_ @JillianBolger @seaneensullivan @OEimhear Wow thanks! I've been reading down the thread and it's making me hungry. 😍

Who are the most influential women in the Irish food scene right now? Along with key chefs + producers who do you think is making a real difference to Ireland's food culture? All suggestions welcome, whether policymakers, producers, marketing + media folk, chefs etc. Thoughts?
