The Kinsale Spirit Company embodies the essence of Kinsale, one of Ireland’s most vibrant and picturesque coastal towns. As a bustling port known for its culinary and beverage specialties and diverse leisure activities, Kinsale’s proactive community provides the inspiration for our products.
Tom O’Riordan, a Kinsale native, founded the Kinsale Spirit Company and harnessed this energy to create our award-winning brands. Starting with a small still in his kitchen, he and his sister Clodagh produced small batches.
Entry into the Irish whiskey market began with the smooth and mellow Battle of Kinsale Series, starting with Red Earl Irish Whiskey, and now includes Great Earl Single Grain Irish Whiskey and Spanish Earl Single Malt Irish Whiskey.
