O'Malley Ireland Spirits Trading Ltd and its distributor Nonto DAC are suing Great Northern Distillery Ltd, alleging improper lien claims on whiskey valued at â¬60 million, purchased over five years. They request court declarations affirming ownership rights for whiskey produced in 2024 and an injunction for access to distillery warehouses. The case highlights a dispute regarding GND's authority over â¬6.4 million in warehousing costs following full payment by the plaintiffs. The Commercial Court has agreed to hear the injunction application next month, amid ongoing disputes about the whiskey inventory.
O'Malley and its distributor Nonto claim they have purchased â¬60m in whiskey from Great Northern Distillery over five years, seeking legal title for future whiskey.
The court case challenges GNDâs claim over a â¬6.4m lien on whiskey, with O'Malley asserting they have already paid for it.
