Be the mixologist with a premium Irish Whiskey, Roe & Co Blended Irish Whiskey! Roe & Co is a new contemporary blend, named to honor the memory of a whiskey-maker whose distillery was in its time the largest in Ireland. George Roe helped build the golden era of Irish whiskey in the 19th century. Their distillery at Thomas Street in Dublin extended over 17 acres and they were Ireland’s largest exporter of whiskey. As neighbors for hundreds of years George Roe and Guinness were the two biggest names at the heart of Dublin’s historic brewing and distilling quarter. Sadly the distillery closed its gates in 1926.
Now, decades after the George Roe distillery finally closed its gates, Irish whiskey is on the cusp of another golden age. Today there is a resurgence of interest in Irish Whiskey and the Thomas Street area is once again becoming a vibrant hub of brewing and distilling in Dublin.
Roe & Co is at the heart of this new vibrancy, celebrating the memory of George Roe, a true pioneer who helped build the original golden era of Irish whiskey.

Using her 30 years of experience, our Master Blender Caroline Martin has created a versatile, premium whiskey. Roe & Co is a luxuriously smooth blend with a perfect harmony between the intense fruitiness of the malt and the mellow creaminess of the grain whiskies.
