Eight food producers from Laois have been shortlisted for this year's Blas na hÉireann awards.
Now in its 17th year, Blas na hÉireann saw another record-breaking year across all categories along with many new producers entering the awards for the first time.
The Laois finalists across a range of different categories are Abbey Farm Foods, Aghaboe Farm Foods, G's Gourmet Jams, Íon Oils and Spices, Kepak Kingate, Mueller & O' Connell Bakery, The Village Dairy and Zephyr Yard.
The competition ramps up year on year, meaning those producers who are shortlisted as finalists really are the crème de la crème of Irish food and drink. For finalist producers it is not just their exceptional food and drink which will be celebrated in Dingle but the people themselves, the passionate producers who make the very best of Irish will be recognised and rewarded making Blas na hÉireann 2024 a food event not to be missed!
The three-day event will takes place from October 3 to 5.
