Writer's Tears is an Irish whiskey brand produced by Walsh Whiskey, founded in 1999 by Bernard and Rosemary Walsh. The brand draws its evocative name from Ireland's rich literary heritage, paying homage to the great Irish writers who were famously fond of whiskey. Walsh Whiskey has grown into one of the notable independent Irish whiskey producers, crafting expressions that celebrate both tradition and creativity. The Writer's Tears range is known for its approachable yet characterful style, with expressions such as the Copper Pot and the Double Oak sitting at the heart of the portfolio. The Double Oak expression, in particular, has garnered considerable attention, maturing in two different types of oak casks to add layers of complexity and depth. The whiskeys are crafted to appeal to both newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike, balancing smoothness with genuine flavour. Writer's Tears Double Oak has earned recognition on the international stage, picking up a Double Gold Medal at the International Spirits Challenge 2019, among other accolades. With its distinctive branding, literary identity, and award-winning liquid, Writer's Tears has become a respected name in the fast-growing world of Irish whiskey.
