Wendy speaks to Michele Shirlow the chief executive of Food NI, William Lavelle of the Irish Whiskey Association, Phil Ervine from Taste and Tour NI and hot from their various stills: Jarlath Watson from Echlinville Distillery, Barbara Hughes co-founder of Hughes Craft Distillery and Joe McGirr from Boatyard Distillery.
