Trump lifts Irish whiskey tariffs on Ireland visit
During a two‑day visit to Ireland, President Trump announced he would scrap the 10% tariff on Irish whiskey, leveling the playing field with Scotch and Northern Ireland; the move was welcomed by the Irish Whiskey Association and the Distilled Spirits Council as a boost to jobs and investment, and comes after his earlier tariff cut on UK whisky in April, alongside his provocative remarks on Irish reunification during the trip.
