The undeclared alcohol had an estimated retail value of more than €23,000, representing a potential loss to the Exchequer of around €12,000, according to Revenue.

Undeclared cocktails, 150,000 illegal cigarettes and herbal cannabis with a combined value of over €330,000 have been seized in three separate operations in the past week by authorities.

On Monday, revenue officers seized over 1,700 litres of cocktails at Dublin Port, following the search of a convoy of vehicles from the UK that were en route to a music event in Dublin.
