J.J. Corry Founder Louise McGuane speaking today about the project: “At J.J. Corry we are all about supporting women in business as well as any advocate of positive change, whatever space in which that may be. This release is our salute to the women breaking ground in the spirits industry and a nod to change. This launch is the first part of a wider campaign by J.J. Corry to celebrate women in the drinks industry.”

McGuane further commented on the collaboration: “We champion the best in modern Irish design and have long admired Jill & Gill, who have designed beautiful bespoke labels for the release. The collaboration makes perfect sense – fellow female founders, they’re progressive and disruptive in their industry; they haven’t allowed themselves to be labeled, which is something we admire. Our charity partner, Dress for Success Dublin, are doing tremendous work in empowering women in need to access the workplace and as advocates for gender equality. It is an honor to support their valuable work.”

Speaking today about the launch of The Whiskey Thief, and J.J. Corry’s support of Dress for Success Dublin, Sonya Lennon, founder of the charity, commented: “I’m delighted that J.J. Corry have chosen to support Dress for Success Dublin, and the work we do with women across Ireland this International Women’s Day. This company, founded by women and led by women, is what the charity is all about. Supporting and advocating for women in leadership is a core tenet of our work, so this is a natural partnership.
