West Cork Distillers: A distillery built on friendly foundations

Built on a foundation of friendship and innovation, West Cork Distillers was established in 2003 by three lifelong friends, Denis McCarthy, Ger McCarthy and John O’Connell in the heart of West Cork at Union Hall.

Ger and Denis had been deep sea trawler men, while John was a research and development scientist, having worked for large blue-chip food and beverage companies.
