Poteen was not legally produced until 1987, when Oliver Dillon of Bunratty Winery, County Clare, was granted permission to distil and bottle the spirit by Irish Revenue Commissioners, on the condition that he exported the spirit and did not sell it in Ireland.

On 7th March 1997, the Irish Revenue Commissioners withdrew their opposition to poteen sales in Ireland and legitimate brands became available on the Irish market for the first time.
