Forget whiskey, poitn is Irelands best kept secret. Its been knocking around since the 6th century, making it the oldest spirit in the world. Mad stuff.

First distilled by monks (God bless you lads), the Irish enjoyed their poitn for a thousand years before it was banned by the Brits in 1661. But were resilient feckers and poitn never really went away.

It remained part of Irish drinking culture and was given names like Cratur, Mountain Dew, Mountain Tea and Devils Spittle. And you always knew a man, who knew a man, that could get you a bottle. Now legal again, poitn can be found on backbars all across Ireland, instead of under the counter.

At Mad March Hare, we use only the finest, locally sourced malted barley and distill three times in small copper pot stills in the traditional way. We then cut the spirit with Irish spring water to 40% ABV resulting in a drink that is full of character and exceptionally smooth. Slinte!

This unique Irish Poitin is made from a blend of malted barley and sugar beet, and is triple distilled in copper pot stills. It has a smooth, sweet taste with notes of honey and spice, and a long, lingering finish. The Mad March Hare Irish Poitin is perfect for sipping neat or as a base for cocktails. Enjoy this unique spirit neat, on the rocks, or in your favorite cocktail.
