Inspired by the Slieve Bloom Mountains

The nearby Slieve Bloom Mountains, visible from The Heritage, provide the inspiration behind the cocktail bar. Their influence can be found throughout the Blooms experience, creating a strong connection between the drinks, the landscape and the destination.
Seasonality is central to the cocktail menu, with fresh botanicals, orchard fruits, herbs, florals and locally inspired ingredients used to create drinks that reflect the character of the Irish countryside.
The result is a cocktail menu that changes with the seasons, giving guests a reason to return and discover something new.
