At the heart of our new identity are two powerful emblems: the lion and the golden eagle, drawn from the family crests of our founders, combining to form a Griffin. Intertwined within the letter “A” (representing Ahascragh), they honour the two families whose story comes together in Ahascragh, home to the many brands produced at our distillery in Galway, Ireland.

The contemporary golden eagle logo will remain the logo of the Clan Colla series of premium whiskies.

Michelle McAllister, founder of Ahascragh Distillery said; "Two family crests, one shared legacy. This new logo brings a new chapter of strength, heritage and values of both families intertwined with a symbol of unity that honours where we come from and represents the future we are building together."

Ahascragh Distillery, Ireland’s first zero energy emissions distillery, officially opened its doors in 2023. Built within a restored nineteenth century mill, guests can tour this state-of-the-art distillery, exploring whiskey and gin production from grain to glass and the history of the old mill. The Ahascragh Distillery Family Bond series of hand-selected releases includes Clan Colla Irish Whiskey, UAIS Irish Whiskey and Xin Gin.
