Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey 450 cl 40% NEW VERSION

Irish whiskey named after the man who electrified an entire town.

Expert description

Tullamore Dew Irish Whiskey is the brand's classic core expression, here in a large 450 cl bottle, bottled at 40%. The Tullamore distillery was founded in 1829 by Michael Molloy. After his death, his nephew Bernard Daly took over management and hired a 15-year-old stable boy named Daniel Edmund Williams as general manager. Williams eventually came to own the distillery and helped modernise the entire town of Tullamore — introducing electricity in 1893, the town's first telephone line, and its first motorised vehicle. After his death, his initials, D.E.W., became a permanent part of the brand name.
