“Some 15.2 million cases of Irish whiskey were sold at home and abroad in 2022 as spirit-makers in the Republic shook off the remaining effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The total value of Irish spirits exports surged to nearly €1.5 billion in 2022, up 17.3 per cent in the year, new figures from employer lobby group Ibec’s Drinks Ireland division on Friday show. It follows a strong rebound of 25 per cent in 2021 after a precipitous 15.6 per cent fall in 2020 due to the impact of the pandemic.”
