Bringing Irish Craft to Daróg: Wild Atlantic Wicks

Written By Darog Wine Bar
Daróg Wild Atlantic Wicks Candles

At Daróg, we love working with passionate makers who share our appreciation for craft, sustainability, and the Irish language. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a special collaboration with Wild Atlantic Wicks, a local candle company we first connected with during the first Gradam in 2023.

We’ve teamed up with local candle makers Wild Atlantic Wicks to create something special—a curated collection of three scented candles, each paired with a seanfhocail (an Irish proverb).

Each candle is hand-poured, made using 100% natural wax, and inspired by the beauty of the west coast.

🌿 Atlantic Sea Foam
Lúb leis an gcrann a lúbfas leat.
Bend with the tree that will bend with you.

🌸 Wild Bluebell
Ní bhíonn crann dána gan fréamhacha.
There is no brazen tree without roots.

🔥 Turf & Embers
Fásann crann ó shíol beag.
A tree grows from a small seed.

We first met the women behind Wild Atlantic Wicks when we took part in the Gradam Sheosaimh Uí Ógartaigh in 2023, and we’re excited to have Anne-Marie & Eimear’s beautiful creations in Daróg.

These small-batch candles make a thoughtful gift or a calming addition to your own space.
They’re available to purchase at Daróg for €25 each.

Go raibh míle maith agaibh to Gaillimh le Gaeilge who continue to support and guide our use of Irish in Daróg.
