I see the Irish Whiskey Association was busy in 2021.
Global sales had declined by 4% in 2020, mainly due to the reduction in air travel and travel retail, but the association is reporting double-digit growth in 2021 and a new all-time high for global sales of Irish whiskey.
Hopefully this bodes well for demand for Irish grain.
