Last year, Great Irish Beverages produced Dublin Gin & Tonic Fest – a citywide celebration of Irish gins. For 2016, we are taking the festival around the entire island of Ireland to all 32 counties!
Irish Gin & Tonic Fest is talking place from June 20th-25th and any bar, restaurant or hotel in Ireland and Northern Ireland may get involved. All they need is a love for supporting Irish drink products and to showcase in their venue one of 8 Irish made gins with a tonic of their choice for the duration of the festival. Registration is free and can be accessed very easily by hitting our website www.greatirishbeverages.com.
As soon as the festival begins, the public may vote for their favourite Irish Gin & Tonic by using the #IrishGnT hashtag on Twitter, or on the great Irish Beverages Facebook page. The winning venue will receive a host of brilliant prizes, and, most importantly, can lay claim that they have the finest Irish Gin & Tonic in all of Ireland!
In addition to the nationwide promo, TheTaste will have a selection of special offers on Irish Gin & Tonics from top venues. A number of the gin brands will also be hosting special festival events and workshops.
Stay tuned to the Great Irish Beverages Twitter and Facebook for all updates!
