DUBLIN’ UP” TO WIN $10,000 TRAVEL VOUCHER WITH ROE & CO BLENDED IRISH WHISKEY’S COCKTAIL CHALLENGE

by Phillip Galyean

Roe & Co, an Irish Whiskey crafted in collaboration with bartenders for bartenders, is encouraging cocktail enthusiasts across the country to team up for the chance to win a $10,000 travel voucher to put towards a trip to Dublin and an immersive cocktail session at the brand’s Dublin-based distillery. Starting today, the brand is kicking off the “Dublin’ Up Cocktail Challenge” Contest where innovative, at-home bartenders can pair up to form a team of two and display their inner creativity by putting their personal spin on their favorite whiskey cocktail.

Are you a cocktail aficionado, or do you have a secret cocktail recipe that you want to share with the world that takes any gathering to the next level? If you answered yes, then grab your challenge partner and prove why your team’s recipe should win the grand prize!

Distilled by Lora Hemy, the super-premium Irish whiskey brand knows St. Patrick’s Day traditions – and cocktail recipes – run deep. At the same time, the number of those who love to make their own drinks at-home has only continued to rise in the last few years.

“As St. Patrick’s Day celebrations have certainly evolved in recent years, we’ve been inspired by the passion and creativity we’ve seen from the holiday’s biggest fans – who have balanced honoring traditional Irish heritage while bringing modern Irish culture and cocktails to the forefront,” said Lora Hemy, Head Distiller at Roe & Co Distillery in Dublin. “Roe & Co is proud to be created in collaboration with a team of bartenders for bartenders, and now we’re looking to foster that same spirit of partnership with cocktail enthusiasts who can not only serve up unique takes on classic whiskey drinks but also become the best version of their home-bartender self.”

To help bring the campaign to life on social media, Roe & Co has engaged Lynnette Marrero, American bartender, mixologist and philanthropist, to help give tips to fans to further hone their recipes via social media. Marrero will be promoting the “Dublin’ Up Cocktail Challenge” on her social media (@drinksat6) so be sure to stay tuned so you don’t miss any of the fun!

Starting today, two person teams of adults 25+ will have the opportunity to submit their cocktails by posting a photo or video on Instagram with #DublinUpCocktailContest and tagging @RoeAndCoWhiskey, ending at 11:59:59 pm ET on May 1, 2023. Fans (21+) will have the chance to vote for their favorite reimagined cocktail from among the three finalists via the Roe & Co Instagram before the lucky winning duo is named after World Whisky Day (May 20, 2023), and their cocktail may be featured by the brand during St. Patrick’s Day 2024 celebrations.
