A record number of cases of Irish whiskey were sold last year.
The latest Irish Whiskey Global Trade Report shows that 16.15 million cases, which each contain 12 bottles, were purchased in 2024.
The US remains the biggest market, with over 5.47 million cases sold last year, representing one of every three bottles sold in the world.
The US was followed by Poland, Germany, India and the UK as the top five international markets.
707,000 case sales were recorded in the domestic market, making Ireland the fourth largest market overall.
The Irish Whiskey Association also said the sale of the product is "growing rapidly in other markets."
It said the report shows that "significant growth is evident in key emerging markets such as Japan and India, up 124% and 120% respectively over the past three years."
The association said Irish whiskey has "also enjoyed increased success throughout the European Union."
It said EU Member States now account for ten of the top 20 markets for Irish whiskey sales.
