Irish Breakfasts - Pair of National Stamps

Irish Breakfasts  Pair of National Stamps




Issued on April 28, the stamps capture the distinctive culinary offerings of the tasty Irish breakfast.

There is something magical about the Irish way of starting off the day on the right note that makes a huge impression on visitors to Ireland as well as on our own population.

The four stamps (two in ‘N’ and two in ‘W’ denomination) reflect the varied options available. Hand-drawn and digital skills are used to illustrate the traditional Irish Fry, piping hot Porridge, wholesome homemade
Breads and healthy Smoothie.
