We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the talented bartenders who participated in the West Cork Whiskey Irish Coffee Competition. The creativity, passion, and dedication demonstrated by each of you truly celebrated the art of crafting the perfect Irish Coffee with your own special twist.
After careful deliberation, our marketing team has selected the winner. However, before we reveal who took home the top prize, we want to acknowledge the incredible efforts of all participants.
