Poteen or is it Poitin??

  • Poteen means "little pot still" and gets its name from the original formula of distilling potatoes in a pot.
  • The spirit is steeped in legend. It has been used as a chest rub as well as a drink and it has been said that it can help a man's virility - when taken in moderation!!
  • Other historic uses for poteen include: a type of dynamite for blowing up rocks, a veterinarian medicine for lacklustre racehorses and an ingredient for baking cakes.
  • Poteen distillers and drinkers have been hauled through the courts for years. Hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of the illicit spirit has been seized over the years.
