Johnny Harte

Johnny is on a mission to battle Bailey’s with his Five Farms premium cream liqueur.

With more than 30 years experience in the drinks industry, co-founder Harte came up with the idea to create a premium drink that is a throwback to traditional times - and a celebration of Cork.

Made with cream from five family-owned farms dotted along the Cork coast, it’s combined with premium Irish whiskey - 10 times more than any other mainstream branded alternative or supermarket copycat. 

He is available to discuss:

• How Bailey’s ‘rural cousin’ is taking on the world’s most successful liqueur brand 

• Why the drink was so popular it had to be raffled off in a US saloon bar

• How he masterminded the ‘perfect’ drink hailed by Sunday Brunch restaurant critic and cocktail queen
