We were impressed from the moment we arrived: beautiful building and great displays of whiskey bottles. The architecture was first class. The tour guide was exceptional. The theatre of the ‘secret door’ was a fabulous start to the experience and it didn’t disappoint from there. The whiskey tasting samples were not ‘mean’ and the drink included in the ticket price was extra added value. Our friends voted it the highlight of our three day trip to this part of Ireland. Well worth it!

After our distillery tour, we opted for the tasting. It is a separate tour. We were behind the bar area in a lovely room with other guests.
We tasted four whiskeys that were different from the other tour we had been on. Our guide explained what we would be tasting one by one. All amazing and each so different. Our favorite was the Midleton. We also enjoyed the Powers.
