Boann Distillery unveils Whistler Triple Oak Irish Whiskey in new eco-friendly bottle
This new expression marks a significant step forward for the Co Meath drinks firm, not only in craftsmanship but also in sustainability, debuting in a newly designed bespoke bottle which is 20% lighter than its predecessor.
The rest of the Whistler range will also adopt this improved bottle design as Boann Distillery continues its commitment to sustainable, eco-conscious packaging solutions.
The Whistler Triple Oak Irish Whiskey is a celebration of threes – Triple Distilled for a signature Irish smoothness, a Triple Blend of Boann-distilled Single Pot Still and Single Malt whiskeys alongside Single Grain whiskey, and Triple Cask matured in Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry, and Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry casks.
'This expertly crafted whiskey brings together the bold character of Single Pot Still, the deep richness of Single Malt, and the gentle sweetness of Single Grain, culminating in a spirit of remarkable balance and complexity,' said Pat Cooney, founder and CEO of the award-winning family distillery, based just outside Drogheda.
The Whistler range from Boann showcases the distillery's passion for innovation and reverence for tradition. The Whistler Irish Honey was recently crowned country winner at the prestigious World Drinks Awards 2025.
With an accessible price point of €32.50 per 700ml, Whistler Triple Oak can be purchased from boanndistillery.ie
The blend consists of:
10% Single Malt Sherry (PX and Oloroso) 10% Single Malt Bourbon 10% Single Pot Still Sherry (PX and Oloroso) 20% Single Pot Still Bourbon 50% Single Grain Bourbon
Nose: Toffee, caramel and oak spice with undertones of raisins and dark chocolate

Undertakings given in premises earmarked for restaurant High Court dispute
Undertakings have been given in the High Court by a defendant in a dispute over a business premises earmarked for a restaurant in Navan, Co Meath. Last week, the court granted permission to Yingjin Lin, her daughter Qin Pin Huang and her son-in-law Qun Huang, to serve injunction proceedings seeking to prevent Frank Mullan from interfering with their right to use 25 Trimgate Street. The application was made on a one-side only represented basis. On Tuesday, the case returned to court when Fred Gilligan BL, for the plaintiffs, said the defendant had agreed to give undertakings pending the full hearing of the case. READ MORE Ms Yingjin Lin, who lives in China, bought the property last January from another man who had previously bought it from a receiver acting for asset acquisition firm Promontoria (Pluto) Ltd. She delegated management to her daughter and son-in-law who live in Ireland. Ms Qin Ping Huang said she believed Mr Mullan (also known as Mullan) previously owned the property and did not challenge its sale by the receiver to the last owner. She said after buying the property, an agreement was made with a prospective tenant to let it out to be used as a restaurant, starting at a rent of €36,000 annually. However, she said efforts to access the property by the prospective tenant for renovation work were blocked by the defendant who also changed the locks. Mr Mullan also used his car to block access to the rear yard. In correspondence, it was asserted on behalf of Mr Mullan that he has ownership of part of the property which he and his tenants had occupied solely and exclusively. Injunction proceedings were served after the prospective restaurant tenant said he was considering pulling out of the lease agreement where Mr Mullan continued to interfere with access and occupy certain parts of the property. On Tuesday, Mr Justice Brian Cregan adjourned the matter to October.

Dispute over Co Meath business premises earmarked for restaurant comes before High Court
A dispute over a business premises earmarked for a restaurant in Navan, Co Meath, has come before the High Court. Mr Justice Brian Cregan granted permission on Tuesday to Yingjin Lin, her daughter Qin Pin Huang and her son-in-law Qun Huang, to serve proceedings seeking to prevent Frank Mullan from interfering with their right to use 25 Trimgate Street. The application was made on a one-side only represented basis by Fred Gilligan BL, for the plaintiffs. Ms Yingjin Lin, who lives in China, bought the property last January from another man who had previously bought it from a receiver acting for asset acquisition firm Promontoria (Pluto) Ltd. She delegated management to her daughter and son-in-law who live in Ireland. READ MORE In an affidavit, Ms Qin Ping Huang said she believes Mr Mullan (also known as Mullan) previously owned the property and did not challenge its sale by the receiver to the last owner. She said after buying the property, an agreement was made with a prospective tenant to let it out to be used as a restaurant, starting at a rent of €36,000 annually. However, she said efforts to access the property by the prospective tenant for renovation work were blocked by the defendant who also changed the locks. Mr Mullan also used his car to block access to the rear yard, she said. In an exchange of pre-litigation correspondence between the parties' solicitors, Mr Mullan told his solicitor that after he handed over the keys to the new owner who bought it from the receiver that he secured the property because a door was blowing open and there was antisocial behaviour taking place. However, the plaintiffs' solicitor contacted the previous owner who told him that after he got the keys, Mr Mullan changed the locks and posted documents purporting to assert his (Mullan's) ownership. In correspondence, it was asserted on behalf of Mr Mullan that he has ownership of part of the property which he and his tenants had occupied solely and exclusively. He did not have any interest in the property acquired from the receiver by the previous owner to him, it was also stated. Injunction proceedings were threatened but held back to avoid inconvenience, delay and expense and in the hope the matter could be amicably resolved, Ms Qin Pin Huang said. Matters came to a head when the prospective restaurant tenant said he was considering pulling out of the lease agreement where Mr Mullan continued to interfere with access and occupy certain parts of the property, she said. A further request for an undertaking to desist from interference and blocking elicited no response and proceedings were brought, she said. Mr Justice Cregan said the case could come back next week.

Boann Distillery helps craft a landmark blended whisky to celebrate The British and Irish Lions partnership
Five distilleries across Ireland and Britain have come together to produce a luxury blended whiskey named after the year of the Lions' founding: 1888 The producers involved are Co. Meath's Boann, Echlinville (Northern Ireland), Cameronbridge (Scotland), White Peak (England) and Penderyn (Wales), each bringing a unique character to a truly unified dram. With just 1,888 individually numbered bottles released, 1888 aims to offer fans a tangible piece of Lions and whisky history in this rare collaboration. It was launched to mark Scottish company, Patron Saint Whisky's appointment as an Official Supplier to The British & Irish Lions Men's Team. Patron Saint collaborates with esteemed distilleries across Ireland and Britain to create exceptional whiskies that celebrate heritage and unity. "We are immensely proud to contribute to the creation of 1888,' said Pat Cooney, founder of family-run Boann Distillery. 'This whisky is more than a blend - it's a symbol of unity and the exceptional craftsmanship found in each of the four unions. 'The Lions represent the pinnacle of sporting achievement and tradition, and it's an honour for Boann to be part of this iconic partnership." Crafted using an array of special casks – including Oloroso Sherry, Mourvèdre, Red Wine, and First-fill Bourbon – 1888 delivers a luxurious sensory experience. On the nose, it reveals sweet vanilla, tangy citrus and baked fruit, followed by layers of summer berries, butterscotch and lightly toasted nuts on the palate. The 2025 British & Irish Lions tour to Australia began with a home fixture in Dublin on June 20, with Andy Farrell's men suffering defeat to Argentina in a thrilling tour match. A series of high-profile matches Down Under this month will culminate in a three-Test series against the Wallabies, starting Saturday, July 19. The release of 1888 has been supported by Lions legends John Rutherford and Craig Chalmers, both praising its craftsmanship and its connection to the spirit of the Lions. 'Just as every Lion who pulls on that jersey contributes to its enduring legacy, every dram of '1888' reflects the careful crafting and dedication that defines a Lion,' said Rutherford. Ben Calveley, CEO of The British & Irish Lions, said, 'I am pleased to welcome Patron Saint to the Lions family and hope that our fans enjoy their unique whisky whilst they cheer on the team this summer.'
