Welcome to Ireland
The distinctive Irish character is shaped by old-fashioned,
family-oriented, essentially rural qualities: kindliness, lack of pretension,
gregariousness, and a penetrating, often self-effacing wit.
Irish literature, music, whiskey, and glassware are held in the highest
regard among people of discriminating tastes throughout the world; though,
indeed, the island's most significant "export" traditionally has been
Irish emigrants, who greatly outnumber the population of Ireland.
The country's personality takes its strongest form beyond the capital
of Dublin, in a largely rural hinterland scattered with towns and villages,
and hemmed by rugged coastlines and low, rolling ranges of hills. From
the rolling hills of Ireland we bring Wool and Cashmere caps. |
