Hi, I will be travelling to Spain this week and wondered if I can buy 1 bottle of alcohol from an Off Licence here and take with me in my luggage. Duty Free does not have what I'm looking for. Thanks TS

You can't get through security with a bottle in your luggage.

If in your checked baggage, should be no problem. I believe we're entitled to bring any amount of duty-paid alcohol across EU borders, as long as its for your personal consumption.

Checked luggage is fine.
If you're going through Dublin and pick the new machines should be fine but no guarantee. I've had spirits in my carry on bag last two trips from Dublin without issue
