Artists' Residency was great; they lived on the island and did wonderful things. For a flavour of the work and the time we had, please look at: http://www.inishturkbeg.com/culture/2010-residency.
I’m final-proofing our Brilliant Irish Flute book today, and then it goes to press along with our great two CDs. I’m afraid our pre-order system collapsed (thanks for the enthusiasm!), so may I ask you please, if you do wish to pre-order a copy, to let us know again by writing to music@inishturkbeg.com. Our website now also has a lovely section on the music, and will keep enlarging with videos and photos of the sessions -- http://www.inishturkbeg.com/culture/music is the place to go. In fact, if you’d like to watch the first video we’re releasing, please click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qk7k-54Uuy8.
Our whiskey bottle has been produced. It was hard. We’ve broken moulds, literally. Each beautiful bottle is hand-blown, and includes a bit of our beach in every bottle. Whiskey news will be announced shortly, including the chance to pre-order our first ever bottling – it’s known as ‘Maiden Voyage’ and there will be only 2,888 bottles produced, so apart from being fabulous, it’s also a collector’s item. It’s a delicious single-malt, using island water and made in barrels that have rested on the island soaking up our atmosphere (and the art and music that’s passed by on some days!). Here’s the start of our whiskey story, on the website: http://www.inishturkbeg.com/produce/whiskey
