Our guests today are Anna and Orla Snook O’Carroll who are the wife-and-wife team proudly making Ireland’s very first vermouth from 20 different botanicals on Valentia Island off the Kerry Coast!
Inspired by the island, epic landscape, botanicals they could forage locally and a love of Vermouth, they set off on their own dream of creating a brand new product for the Irish shelves. And this was something that was born in their home kitchen and now they have even more bigger dreams and plans of building a distillery and visitors centre right there on Valentia Island.
And Valentia Island is a special place, the birthplace of world wide day communications, as this was the location of the first transltanic communications cable connecting the Europe and America together, so we also speak to national tour guide Mary Murphy O’Donoghue who told us about this significant place in modern history.
.
In this chat, we learn how Anna and Orla are deeply committed to sustainable and cradle-to-cradle design principles in their foraging, packaging and environmental sustainability within their community. We hear about the early days of their business, the processes involved, the experience of drinking vermouth… i can tell you it’s good! And what we can expect down the line from them down the line.
