Abbey Bread

Our son Manus is currently in Transition Year in Cistercian College Roscrea and has started a small enterprise called Abbey Bread.  This Wholemeal Yeast Bread Mix is based on the traditional bread baked by the monks at Mount St Joseph Monastery in Roscrea, a practice  discontinued about 10 years ago.  

The intention behind the enterprise was to honour the tradition and celebrate an artisan product that was a central part of the ‘story’ of Mount St Joseph Abbey and the Cistercian Order.  Manus received the support of the monastic community and the monks are delighted with his efforts.  If you would like more information please visit www.abbeybread.ie where you can find out everything about the project.
