Our Family Story

This is a journey, where like-minded companions travel along

In the heart of the Boyne Valley, the Cooney family is reviving the time-honoured traditions of Ireland’s master distillers. It is here, in Boann Distillery, that we have set about creating the finest whiskeys.

OUR BACKGROUND

Boann Distillery is a family company, born and believed in by Patrick and Marie Cooney, along with their family; Sally-Anne, Celestine, Peter, Patrick and James.

With a combined wealth of experience, including forty years in the Irish drinks industry building up the Gleeson Group from a small independent bottler to a company with a turnover in excess of €300 million per annum, the Cooney family understands what it takes to create successful, premium brands.

BOANN DISTILERY

It has always been a family dream to craft and distill our very own Irish whiskey.

Our specially designed and distinctive nano-copper pot stills and fine oak cask cellars, ensure we produce a whiskey of distinct character with a real sense of place.
