- Dhá Keg Poitín
Ba gnáthach leobhtha poitín a dhéanad annseo fad ó agus ba ghnátach an tóir a bheith indiaid go minic. Tháinig an ruaig ar stilleoir am amháin. Amach leis agus an dá keg leis faoi na dhá ascaill. Bhí an t-ualach trom agus mheas sé gur bfearr do iad a chur a bfolach. Tháinig sé fhad le poll uisge agus chaith sé amach an da asglann agus chuir meadhchain orthu i mbruach an phoill. Bhí dhá ghabhar ag ingilt ar bhruach an phoil agus bhí an stilleoir bocht comh soinneanta gur shaoil sé go mbeadh na gabhair mar comhartha aige ar an áit folaighe nuair a phillfeadh sé aríst le seilbh a ghlacadh orthu. Acht faraor! Nuair a thoisig an cuartúghadh bhí na gabhair imtighthe agus tá an biotailte sin i “mbond” ó shoin.
