Cooraclare, Co. Clare, Ireland, March 5th, 2021 – Ireland’s first modern Whiskey Bonder has announced an apparel release for International Women’s Day in collaboration with Irish Designer Begley & Bowie.
The project shines a light on historic County Clare woman, Biddy Early, placing her alongside women world-renowned throughout history for their social, scientific and cultural contributions.
A portion of profits from the sale of the clothing will be donated to Women for Election, an Irish non-profit that trains and supports women to succeed in political life.
