A local Spirit.

Made by the Parish, for the Parish.

In 19th Century, renowned cartographer Eugene Curry traveled the length and breadth of Ireland’s West, putting many rural Irish towns on the map for the first time. When he came across the bend by the bridge in in Cooraclare he remarked that the village street resembled a Pig’s Elbow, giving it a nickname that affectionately lives on 180 years later.

Pig's Elbow Gin Tasting Cooraclare — by the parish, for the parish

Covid 19 has impacted community groups in Cooraclare who rely on fundraising to provide their services. As a local business we decided to step in and help. We sourced several formulas of gin from our friends at The Old Carrick Mill Distillery. In August 2020 we invited parishioners of Cooraclare to our tasting barn to choose which gin would carry The Pig’s Elbow name.
