About Us
We Irish already have a revered place in the international drinks market with our global whiskeys, stout and even liquors. Striving to expand this list today: we at Slainte® are bringing a number one mixer and water offering to the global stage. We are extremely proud , but another national treasure. For what could speak Irish more loudly than Slainte®?
A Proudly Irish Brand
Life is filled with opportunity. The Italians and French seized an opportunity 30 years ago to fill their internationally acclaimed restaurants with bottled waters sourced exclusively from their own countries, allowing those waters to quickly become mainstream in the world of fine dining and successful thereafter in their own right.
The Irish, too, are acclaimed in similar fields; Irish pubs, hotels and restaurants abound throughout the globe, attracting loyal patriots transfixed on “all things Ireland”. We recognised this as an opportunity to develop an iconic and truly Irish product, and set out to create a suite of premium-quality products with international appeal that could take on the market leader in both taste and appearance but, importantly, would be distinctively Irish. Both inside and out.

The purity of our water source and the extraordinary quality of the ingredients used, all point to Sláinte® being quite possibly the best tasting mixer and mineral water in the world.
Did you know? Only 2.5% of the world’s water is drinkable and, from this, we can access less than half. And then, from that small amount, just a tiny fraction, is natural mineral water. Sláinte® therefore, is a very precious natural gift. One that we are immensely proud to be a part of.
The Sláinte® Story
To kindred spirits since 1939. Discover the Sláinte® journey so far; and see what’s yet to come.
Irish expats have a strong loyalty to Ireland and its industrialists. And yet, remarkably, Irish pubs both at home and aborad don’t have an Irish mixer or water to offer their customers. The Sláinte® Team set out to create the most premium tasting mixer of all. Irish inside and out.
To develop an exceptional product, we first needed to find an exceptional-quality water source. We journey up and down the country, testing out various wells and mountain springs until we found it: deep in the heart of Tipperary, a natural artisan spring water that had been filtered for at least a thousand years.
Once we had acquired our water source, we began experimenting with flavour. We added a variety of ingredients to our mineral waters to create a superior range of delicious mixers and stand-alone beverages.
In 2021 we carried out sample trials of our new mixer products. The products won multiple blind taste tests across the country when pitched against the market incumbents. We knew we were on the right track.
Fashion needs to accompany form and function in order to enable a truly special product. That’s why we set out to design a bespoke new glass bottle that would directly complement the exquisite taste of our new beverages. Our unique Sláinte® bottle has presence, elegance and premium quality stamped all over it.
We had the perfect product, now we needed to produce it. In 2022, we also found our supply partner in Borrisoleigh Bottling Limited; a company with deep roots in Ireland’s mineral water industry and a focus on sustainable production practices.
To complement our bespoke glass bottles, we needed labeling that would not only showcase the quality of the product within, but fully encapsulate who Sláinte® is as a brand. Our collaboration with Dublin College of Art and Design was a no-brainer. As part of the Slainte® Annual Arts Competition, we commissioned upcoming Irish artists to create a selection of contemporary paintings that would each feature inside a particular Slainte® product offering.
The result: a selection of diverse bottle artwork that showcases local Irish talent and the beauty of Irish art in general on an international stage as our product sales grow.
With distinctive quality, taste and design all wrapped up into one exceptional product, the Sláinte® range of beverages is ready to hit the market. This year we’re focusing on finding stockists all across Ireland and beyond - and we couldn’t be more excited to proudly present our product to the world.
We’ve come far, but there’s still a long way to go. Interested to see where the Sláinte® Story will go next? Follow our socials or get in touch with us to learn more.
