Getting sentimental about the success of his business doesn t come naturally to John O Connell, co-founder and director of West Cork Distillers.
The whiskey company, which he started in 2003 with his two best friends, Denis and Ger McCarthy, has excelled following what he describes as a challenging start. While he reflects on some of those tough times, there are still many memorable moments with the company that this modest Cork man allows himself to enjoy. We wouldn t be overly reflective in that regard, says O Connell, of West Cork Distillers rise. I don t mean to portray myself as Mother Teresa, but one thing you would be proud of is when you walk here and see the car park full.
