Slane Irish Whiskey has announced the launch of its Special Edition brand to celebrate 40 years of the brand's trailblazing music history. The specially-produced beverage has hit the shelves just in time for nationwide St Patrick's Day celebrations on March 17 and packs a special punch for the occasion.
The limited-edition blend was created as a tribute to Lord Henry Conyngham who staged Ireland's biggest rock concert in 1981 welcoming 80,000 music lovers to his front lawn at Slane Castle.
Over 40 years later, Lord Henry’s vision lives on having played host to some of the biggest music acts on the planet and attracting visitors from all over the world. Slane Special Edition ramps up the flavour that comes from Slane Irish Whiskey ’s signature triple casked method by using extra virgin oak casks blended with seasoned barrels and Spanish sherry casks.
