Following on from our massive success at Great Taste receiving 4 Awards, it has just been confirmed that we have been shortlisted for 3 Awards at Blás na hEireann, the Irish food awards.

This means we are in the final 5 in revelation category, with 3 awards being granted, gold, silver and bronze, in each category.
1) Ballyhoura Farmhouse Cider
2) Orleans Oak Spiced Vinegar
3) Apple Chai Shrubs Sweet Drinking Vinegar.

Being in the finals with 3 products, is, in itself a great achievement, as the number of entries and competition has become huge, for the coveted Blás na hEireann Awards in Oct 2017.
