The story of Egan’s Irish Whiskey begins in the heart of Ireland, in County Offaly, where Patrick Egan Sr. established P. & H. Egan Ltd. in 1852, named for his two sons Patrick Jr. and Henry. The family quickly gained a reputation for their expertise and soon became one of the most respected whiskey merchants in Ireland but also traded in agricultural equipment, fertilisers and timber. In addition to that, they were operated as general grocers, brewers, maltsters and ironmongers.
The brand was brought back to life again by Jonathan and Maurice Egan (fifth and sixth generation whiskey merchants), launching initially in the U.S. in 2015.
