A US spirit company is to start selling Michael Collins-branded whiskey in Ireland from next month.
The whiskey, which has sold 120,000 bottles Stateside since it was launched in March, is produced by Ireland's last remaining independent whiskey maker, Cooley Distillery, which supplies to Sidney Frank Importing, a New York-based company which owns and markets the drink.
Sold in an original blend and a single malt, the especially long whiskey bottles are branded with the signature of Collins from the 1921 Treaty.
