BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--3 Hearts of Ireland (Boston, MA) and Malcolm Brown Ltd. (Dundalk, Ireland), the brand owners of Flaming Leprechaun Irish Spirits, are proud to announce their results from the just-completed New York World Wine And Spirits Competition. After several days of tasting and evaluating, the judges have awarded Flaming Leprechaun’s Special Reserve Irish Whiskey a Silver Medal, their ever-popular Fiery Cinnamon Whiskey a Bronze Medal, and Flaming Leprechaun’s Triple Distilled Rum a Silver Medal.
These awards follow the stunning results from last year at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, as Flaming Leprechaun captured a grand total of five medals (one for each of their products) including a pair of “Double Gold” medals won in the Vodka and Gin categories.
“We are proud to win again this year, this time in New York City, in the three categories we competed in,” said Jack Walsh, the Managing General Partner of 3 Hearts of Ireland. “There were thousands of entries in each group from all over the world, so for Flaming Leprechaun to win again is such a tremendous honor. We’re humbled to again be recognized in such a way.”
After years of careful, research, development and refinement by 3 Hearts of Ireland and Malcolm Brown to deliver superlative quality Irish products to the United States market, the brand has taken the US by storm. Flaming Leprechaun is available in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, and will be throughout New England by years’ end. It plans on expansion across the United States over the next two years. Flaming Leprechaun is distributed by United Liquors, a division of Martignetti Companies, the leading wholesaler of wine and distilled spirits in New England and the 7th largest distributor in the country.
Flaming Leprechaun is an exciting new line of premium distilled Spirits exported directly from Ireland. The brand, which is deeply rooted in traditional Irish heritage and culture, offers US consumers top-quality spirits with award-winning taste that captures all the fun of St. Patrick’s Day in every bottle.

Recently, Flaming Leprechaun Special Reserve Irish Whiskey was recognized with a ranking of 93, by a Tasting Panel Magazine review which appears in the September 2016 issue.
