Irish Whiskey Pt. 15: Ghosts of the Irish Rebellion and a Day In Belfast // McConnells
Manage episode 353371763 series 2644405
It seems appropriate that an episode featuring me taking a walking tour of Belfast with McConnell's Sarah Kennedy would sync up with the story of the Irish Rebellion of 1798. It was a pivital time in Irish history, when a last ditch effort was made to separate from the control of Great Britain. Its an event that would echo down through Irish history - especially in Belfast and Northern Ireland.
Hear the story of one of the rebellion's central figures and how one of the United Irishmen's own came to haunt one of Ireland's most historic distilleries.
And enjoy a cruise around Belfast, where - dare I say, I tasted the greatest beer I've ever tasted.
Cheers and Slainte mhaith!
