Perfect as a winter aperitif served with chilled water or as a summertime digestif, Oak Cross also pairs exceptionally well with a variety of cheeses.

Straw Boys Irish Vodka was created using select grain from traditional farming methods. Our vodka has a rich mouthfeel that is luscious, silky, and semi-sweet. It is batch distilled in copper pot stills and hand bottled at our distillery. Like the wedding crashing straw boys of western Ireland, our vodka is fun and spirited.

Clear with an aroma of freshly cut hay, green grass, lemon zest, salt and sweetness. A rich taste with lots going on: grassy, lemony and vanilla sweetness. A full, creamy body. Finishes soft with alcohol warmth and the flavors linger. Crisp and clean vodka full of sophisticated nuance. It blends well with mixers and really enhances the taste and flavor of your favorite cocktail such as a Cosmo, Bloody Mary or Mule.

Poitn, pronounced put' cheen, is unaged, white whiskey that has been made in rural Ireland for decades. It's essentially what Americans call moonshine. Using a mash featuring malted barley, we distill our poitn in copper pot stills at our distillery. It is hand bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV). Our poitn's name salutes another tradition of western Ireland, where wedding crashers, who brought the bridal couple good luck, were known as 'straw boys.

Smooth and complex to taste. This is 100% malted barley so it has a great full flavor. Clear with an aroma of raw, funky farmhouse hay and clay plus corn sweetness. Sweet and spicy in the taste with mint, lemon zest, roses, pepper, citrus, macaroons and alcohol warmth soft and nice. A light to medium body. Finishes with spices, vanilla, black pepper, flowers and alcohol warmth. Although Poitn is traditionally consumed straight, the warm and toasty flavors make a compelling cocktail as well. It makes an excellent Irish Coffee and a surprisingly excellent Irish Margarita.

TASTING NOTES

"This seems to have more precise flavors rather than a medley of subtle ones. The aroma focuses on juniper, other berry skins, and freshly-ground coriander. The palate is more bitter than the aroma might let on as anise and orris root play a large role. Though fret not, fresh juniper and elderberry tea are at the center of it all. Try this in a Negroni or a Corpse Reviver."

Named #1 Beer of the Year by Wine Enthusiast Magazine, RODENBACH Caractre Rouge is crafted by brew master Rudi Ghequire in partnership with 2-star Michelin chef Viki Geunes. It is an unblended beer, aged for two years in RODENBACH's famous oak foeders (standing oak casks) and then matured an additional six months with cherries, raspberries and cranberries.

RODENBACH Caractre Rouge offers a fruity nose, with a taste of cherries, raspberries and cranberries followed by a woody caramel note on the finish that comes from the barrel-aging process. The taste is sour but exceptionally pure. With its long, clean aftertaste and its unique combination of delicacy and strength, RODENBACH Caractre Rouge is reminiscent of a crisp Burgundy wine and a perfect pairing alongside meats with fruit glazes, salads with cranberries, side dishes and desserts.
