Louise McGuane

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Louise McGuane is an Irish whiskey entrepreneur. McGuane opened her own label, J.J. Corry Irish Whiskey, in 2016. J.J. Corry is the first female-owned Irish Whiskey House. The brand is specifically a restoration of a nearly lost production technique known as "bonding" wherein the base distilling process is crowdsourced, and then the primary distillery ages, blends, and fine-tunes the batches for wholesale.[1][2][3][4][5]
