Erin Grant is Craft Ambassador at our Jameson Distillery in Bow St Dublin. Starting as a Brand Ambassador, Erin’s eagerness to learn and her passion for learning about the craft of whiskey-making led her to her current role. The highlight of Erin’s career was visiting our colleagues in Pernod Ricard Philippines, where she was involved in training bartenders and brand ambassadors as part of the ‘Jameson Distillery on tour’ market activation. This allowed Erin to connect with different cultures, broaden her horizons and learn some Tagalog, one of the main Filipino languages.

Christy Collard, a timber build artist and designer from West Cork led the design and construction of the Jameson Connects stage at this year’s All Together Now festival, which he built in collaboration with Nineyards.   This circular structure, built from Sitka spruce timbers shaped into an arch, mirrors the form of a barrel rising from the ground—creating a unique experience for concert goers.   A new addition this year was a merchandise shop, with all proceeds supporting charitable causes. The timber used in the construction is an industry by-product, typically considered waste, yet it was repurposed into a permanent structure. According to Christy, the most rewarding aspect of this project is seeing how people engage with the space. Ultimately, it’s the combination of people and music that brings the stage—and the entire initiative—to life.   #IrishDistillers #ATN #Jameson
