DUBLIN and NEW YORK, Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Natterjack Irish Whiskey, the award-winning Irish whiskey brand known for its distinctive fusion of Irish whiskey-making and American Oak maturation, today announced a long-term strategic partnership with Frederick Wildman & Sons, one of the United States' leading importers and marketers of premium wines and spirits.
