Georgina Campbell
"For years I've been banging on about the shortage of good Irish-made non-alcoholic drinks - and, specifically, a quality commercially produced elderflower cordial that would be available all year round like the imported ones...."

"With a background in farming and teaching, husband and wife team David and Martina Burns definitely took a chance when they created Richmount Cordials back in 2013. A couple of years and 920 elder saplings later, their elderflower cordial has won multiple accolades as well as hoards of foodie fans. Add it to sparkling water, cocktails or even pour it, undiluted over ice-cream for something a little different! We served it to our guests at our wedding in June and it went down a treat."


Longford Enterprise Awards citation
"A lovely new company producing Elderflower Cordial, Richmount Cordial operates from a farm in Carrickboy. The business is run by husband and wife team David and Martina Burns. David, a farmer by profession saw a niche in the market after specialising for years in the growing of sweetcorn. Martina, a retired teacher, had been making Elderflower Cordial for home use for many years, until in 2013, when both she and David decided to take a leap of faith and plant their land with elderflower saplings.

They then looked into the retail aspects for marketing the cordial which is manufactured according to Martina's home recipe and includes the freshest of elderflowers with no artificial sweeteners or additives.The window for picking is very short - just four to six weeks - so the Burns have to plan carefully in order to maximise the flowers that are available to them.

The product is currently stocked in over 150 of Ireland's leading speciality food stores and has been judged to be a far superior quality to any of its imported equivalents. The couple's passion shines through in both the quality of the product and in its marketing and branding. The business operates from their farmhouse and plans are already in place to introduce more products onto the market in the near future."
