GOLDEN ERA OF IRISH WHISKEY <\/strong><\/p>\n 19th and early 20th century Ireland was a\u00a0golden era both for Irish whiskey and, perhaps coincidentally, for great Irish novelists, poets and playwrights. Ireland was then the leading whiskey producing nation in the world and the birthplace of literary giants of the era including writers such as George\u00a0Bernard Shaw, Oscar Wilde, W.B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, James Joyce, Samuel Beckett\u00a0and Bram Stoker, to name but a few.<\/p>\n Many of these great writers, on occasion would take refuge in their local public house, where they could draw inspiration from their daily observations of life while\u00a0enjoying the comfort of their favorite dram of whiskey.<\/p>\n CHAMPAGNE OF IRISH WHISKEY <\/strong><\/p>\n At this time, one whiskey blend was held high above all others. Known as the \u2018champagne of Irish whiskey\u2019 it was a master blend of pot\u00a0still and malt whiskeys, both distilled in copper\u00a0 pots. It was enjoyed by many of the great Irish writers of the day\u2026 of course less for its\u00a0 inspirational qualities than its full bodied, flavorsome taste and creamy texture! It was said that they enjoyed it so much, that when they cried their tears were of whiskey.<\/p>\n Walsh Whiskey\u2019s Writers\u2019 Tears Copper Pot is a critically acclaimed, award-winning\u00a0recreation of that fabled 19th century style of whiskey. A truly unique expression that is\u00a0embedded in history.\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/hot_content_detail_body][hot_manifesto manifesto_title_primary=”Writers\u2019 Tears” manifesto_title_secondary=”the dreamer’s dram” manifesto_body=”A marriage of inspiration and art, Writers\u2019 Tears is inspired by the golden era of Irish Whiskey, pot still distillation and its deep, lasting bond with creative thinkers and artists that defined Irish culture in the 19th and early 20th centuries.” manifesto_image_left=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WT_111866_F.jpg” manifesto_image_right=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/writerstears_header.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_manifesto][hot_anchor_link_grid_products anchor_link_title=”PRODUCTS BY LIQUOR” anchor_link_grid_title_top=”Writers\u2019 Tears” anchor_link_grid_title_bottom=”Products” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_anchor_link_grid_products][hot_awards awards_title_top=”raise” awards_title_bottom=”a glass” award_a=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9hd2FyZHMiLCJzZXR0aW5ncyI6eyJwb3N0X2lkIjoiMTAzMTUifX0=@” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _dynamic_attributes=”award_a” _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_awards][hot_media_gallery _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][hot_media_gallery_slide title=”Writers’ Tears” image=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WT_111866_F-1.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_media_gallery_slide][hot_media_gallery_slide title=”writers’ tears” image=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WT_111708_F-1.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_media_gallery_slide][hot_media_gallery_slide title=”writers’ tears” image=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WT_111594_F-1.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_media_gallery_slide][hot_media_gallery_slide title=”Writers’ Tears” image=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Walsh_Neutral_Serve_580.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_media_gallery_slide][hot_media_gallery_slide title=”Writers’ Tears” image=”https:\/\/www.hotalingandco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Bernard-Rosemary-Walsh.jpg” _builder_version=”4.6.5″ _module_preset=”default”][\/hot_media_gallery_slide][\/hot_media_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"yoast_head":"\n
