OISÍN DAVIS is a self-confessed wizened old warhorse of the Irish drinks industry. His earliest work years saw him taking on roles as varied as a dive bar doorman in San Francisco to a music promoter for clubs and venues. In 1999, he opened the Sugar Club on Dublin’s Leeson Street and worked as their general manager for 13 years.

There he learnt the craft of cocktail bartending and loved it. His passion for Irish spirits and cocktails led him to establish Ireland’s first dedicated drinks consultancy, Great Irish Beverages. Through this company, he has run nationwide drinks festivals, worked all over the world marketing for Jameson’s global team and manages publicity for some of Ireland’s most prestigious spirits and iconic whiskeys.

Oisín writes an award-winning monthly column in Food & Wine Magazine with the Business Post and is a regular radio and TV contributor.
