New Waterford Whiskey to hit shelves next week - Deise Today Friday 19th June

They began distilling 5 years ago and this month Waterford Distillery have launched their first product for sale, which hit the shelves across Europe and Asia earlier this week. Next week 1,400 bottles of an exclusive Irish blend will be released for sale, mostly around the Waterford area. Damien speaks to Ned Gahan and Megan Kiely from the distillery.

Also on the show we hear from Sylvia whose husband had a severe reaction to a bee or wasp sting and had to be treated at a local health centre.

Also our reporter Eoghan Dalton visits the village of Portlaw ahead of the pubs re-opening at the end of the month. Edmund Fogarty from The Cotton Mill pub in the town says they won't be re-opening as they don't serve hot food.

And James Donoghue, manager of the Local Link Bus services tells Damien they have been busy since they re-started their service with demand exceeding supply due to reduced numbers on the busses.

We feature another of the nominees in the search for Waterford's Greatest Sporting Hero, golfer Seamus Power.

We look at the power and meaning of dreams with Robert Williams, author of 'Dreams: A Fascinating Glimpse into the World of Dreams'

And the owner of Aldridge Lodge in Duncannon, Billy Whitty, tells Damien how they sold out two months in just 1 day when they re-opened their booking online. He says people are excited to get back to eating out.
