SSP and Dublin Airport have announced the opening of the Whiskey Bread Bar in Terminal 2, located in Terminal 2’s US Preclearance area catering to all US bound passengers. The new bar features a wide variety of Irish and international whiskeys on the menu.
Pre-departure an online whiskey quiz helps customers navigate the whiskey selection, and gives them a unique opportunity to create their own whiskey flight. These flights also come with individual tasting notes for customers to take away with them as a souvenir of their visit.
Whiskey Bread Bar, which affords customers spectacular views across the Dublin Airport airfield, celebrates the story of Ireland and America and the culinary links between the two nations.
The name and concept of Whiskey Bread Bar pays homage to a piece of culinary history which unites both America and Ireland. Whiskey Bread derives from soda bread, which is most commonly attributed to Ireland but has its origins in America due to Native Americans being the first people to use soda to leaven their bread.
To accompany many dishes on the food menu, Whiskey Bread Bar will also serve its own tailor-made whiskey-steeped soda bread.
The bar sounds ideal for Whiskey aficionados travelling to the US, if Whiskey Bread proves as popular as it sounds, maybe others will open for passengers travelling to all destinations.
