Our services for the hospitality industry
Dedicated to enhancing your experience, we specialize in Irish Whiskey, bringing a touch of exclusivity to your establishment through our expertly curated drink menus. We offer valuable insights into beverage profitability and conduct personalized staff training for hotels, bars, and upscale restaurants.
Beverage Profitability Consulting
As beverage consultants, our aim is to guide you to greater profitability. Initially, we will analyze your current pricing, assess the actual pour cost of all served drinks, establish an effective inventory management system, and make necessary pricing adjustments. Simultaneously, we'll negotiate better pricing from your suppliers on your behalf. This strategic approach aims to boost sales growth by presenting your guests with a higher-end, quality product, thereby increasing their overall spending.
Drinks Menu Development
We specialize in creating, designing, producing, and printing high-end beverage menus that showcase premium spirits, rums, whiskies, and cocktails. Additionally, we can craft a separate "whiskey Bible" to provide your guests with an introduction to whiskies from around the world and an in-depth overview of Irish Whiskey.
Staff Training
Recognizing that people are key to business success, ILG has meticulously crafted dynamic training programs for premier whiskey. We equip your staff with the expertise and up-selling techniques needed to craft and serve high-end spirits, cocktails, and whiskey to effectively elevate your overall business experience.
Create Your Own Bespoke Whiskey
Collaborate with us to craft a bespoke whiskey, tailored exclusively for your business. We can create a unique blend and label, or negotiate a deal for a cask from our distillery partners. Adare Manor, the Temple Bar, and others partnered with Middleton and Red Breast for exclusive releases. Share your bottle budget, and we'll take care of the rest.
