Spirits Training

@Bill_Linnane To try establish some new rules on regional styles is not logical “especially when grain whiskey uses so much imported corn 🌽. I think which would be best is to champion authentic innovation and commitment to local agriculture and traditional crafts such as coopers

Excessive rates of excise tax mean Irish consumers pay more for drinks in Ireland - that are produced here - than they do abroad. @Paschald @mmcgrathtd use #Budget23 as an opportunity to support local industries. Reduce excise tax. bit.ly/TaxReport2022 #SYL22
