Over 35 venues across the country are set to host their St Patrick’s Day celebrations – fuelled by Glendalough Irish Whiskey.
In the true spirit of the Irish, Glendalough Irish Whiskey is set to be enjoyed by revellers up and down the UK, in the Irish Coffee, specially crafted cocktails, and poured honest and straight from the bottle, as various venues prepare their activations for the 17th March.
Taking part in the revelry with their own headline activations, will be London hotspots The George, and The Edition, Manchester’s Salmon of Knowledge, and Glasgow’s sebb’s.
At The George in Fitzrovia, the festivities will kick off on Friday 14th March and carry on until close on Monday 17th March, The George will be home to live Irish music sets, a riotous Irish pub quiz hosted by Comedian Peter Flanagan, a live stream of the Cheltenham Gold Cup, and the Six Nations finals which will see Ireland play Italy at 2.15pm. Visitors will enjoy Irish fare like chicken fillet rolls, native oysters, as well as menu staples like The George’s famous hot dog, but served up with delicious Guinness gravy.
On offer to wash down the festivities will be a signature Irish Coffee using Glendalough’s Double Barrel Whiskey. The warming ‘cocktail’ pairs the delicious spirit with freshly made Origin coffee, cream, and a homemade Guinness reduction – creating the perfect serve every time.
To round off the celebrations on Paddy’s Day itself, The George will give away 100 free Glendalough Irish Coffees, served on a first-come, first served basis.
At The London Edition – an equally entertaining celebration of Irish culture will take place in the form of Jonbers’ Irish Revue, guests will enjoy a three-course lunch and show celebrating the best of Irish cuisine and culture, including drag performances, poetry, a Sinead O’Connor sing-along, and traditional Irish Dancing troupe. The menu will feature Irish food – and the guest’s choice of expertly crafted Glendalough Irish Whiskey cocktails.
In Glasgow, the whiskey-fuelled revelry can be enjoyed at the city’s freshest underground bar, Sebb’s. This hot night spot is owned by Michelin BIB award winning Scoop Restaurants – the brains behind the much-loved Ka Pao, Margo and Ox & Finch. From 12th – 17th March, revellers will be able to enjoy Sebb’s good old-fashioned hospitality, with an Irish twist. Glendalough Irish Coffees will be served across the five days at a price of £5, with the usual live music sets happening across the weekend.
Nick Gillett, Managing Director of Mangrove commented on the activation:
Glendalough Distillery is an exceptional example of an Irish drinks’ portfolio enjoying global success. And the feather in its cap, Glendalough Irish Whiskey, is the only choice of tipple to celebrate with this St Patrick’s Day.
“Whether you’re celebrating at The George, The London Edition, Salmon of Knowledge, sebb’s or elsewhere – the sheer determination and creativity of our industry deserves to be recognised. So, toast the trade with a glass of Glendalough Irish Whiskey in hand – rooted in Ireland, raised for St. Patrick’s Day. Sláinte!
