Oxford Crown Court jurors heard how Mr Farquhar's drinks were spiked with bioethanol and poteen, a high strength Irish alcohol, while his food was laced with drugs.

Her nurse's shebeen--a tumble-down festering hostelry thatched with decaying straw--was no better than a dog-boy's boozing ken, a disgraceful trysting-place for drunken soldiers, who were enticed thither by its excellent poteen.

‘Howsomever, don’t be downhearted, but take a good drop of poteen, and ‘twill give you all the false courage that any man wants.’

"And this I take to be as free of any allegiance to the king as yourself," said Daly, as he poured out a wineglass-ful of "poteen" from a short black bottle.

"Mutton always—fish and game when there's the season for them—and poteen to wash them down."
