  • Beef dripping made by a butchers based in Co. Tipperary, Ireland has been awarded the title of Great Taste Supreme Champion 2015 by a board of expert judges

The product is made by James Whelan Butchers in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary using grass-fed Angus and Hereford beef which has been rendered and clarified into a clear, rich dripping.

John Farrand, managing director of the Guild of Fine Food, organisers of Great Taste said, “Great Taste recognises flavour above all else and James Whelan’s Beef Dripping is a perfect example of this, astonishing our panel of judges with its pure beefiness and savoury depth.

“The dripping is a simple, quite humble product made exceptionally well by a master of butchery. It succeeded through day-after-day of blind-tasting, winning favour at every stage of Great Taste and wowing expert judges who really know their stuff. As one of our judges said, just a spoonful would add sheer magnificence however it was used.”
