FULL DUBLIN'S DISTILLERY TRAIL PROGRAMME
DISTILLERY TRAIL BEGINS AT 2:30PM
We pick you up in style at your hotel in executive transportation. This is a private tour for you and your party only. This afternoon, we take you to the Liberties neighbourhood of Dublin, which once housed 32 working distilleries, all of which disappeared in the 20th century. But now, distilling is returning to the Liberties with a bang! And this afternoon, we take you to three new Dublin distilleries.
Our first visit is to the Dublin Liberties Distillery – a brand new distillery set in a 300-year-old building. Along with learning how their whiskeys are made and how they differ from other world brands, you’ll be entertained with some wonderful stories on characters who lived over many years in The Liberties. Tastings include Dubliner Tannery Edition (exclusive to the distillery), Liberties Oak Devil and Dubliner Honeycomb Liqueur.
THE LIBERTIES AND THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE
Just a short walk around the block will see us at Teeling Whiskey Distillery – the first new distillery to open in Dublin in over 125 years. We do a private visit to Teelings which includes a shortened visit to the distillery floor (there’s no need to do a full process tour again). We arrive in the bar for a private tasting of Teeling Small Batch and Teeling Single Pot Still – the latter being the first Dublin whiskey to be made in the city in nearly 50 years.
PEARSE LYONS DISTILLERY
Next we’re off to Pearse Lyons Distillery, set in St. James’ Church which dates back to the 12th century. The tour includes a saunter around the graveyard on the grounds of the church and then you’ll hear the fascinating stories of those buried there. Discover the distillery in all its glory, set in the restored church. We’ll have a private tasting of three Pearse Lyons whiskeys and their delicious Dublin gin.
We finish our whiskey trail back in the city centre, by dropping you at your hotel or wherever you request. We’re glad to give you some restaurant/pub recommendations or indeed some tips for the rest of your trip.
ALTERNATIVE DISTILLERY VISIT - ROE & CO
Depending on availability, we might substitute one of the distilleries mentioned above with the wonderful Roe & Co.
Nearly a century after the original Roe Distillery closed its doors, the parent company of Guinness have resurrected the one-time most produced pure pot still Irish whiskey brand in the world. A visit to the new state-of-the-art Roe & Co Distillery, located in the former Guinness Power Station, is quite different to any other distillery in Dublin. Observe the operational distillery, hear the hum of productivity, and witness the copper pot stills and mash tun from the impressive Powerhouse Bar. Explore the unique process behind Roe & Co whiskey, named after the number of blends it took to perfect the Roe & Co liquid.
We have a tutored whiskey tasting in the bar and guests are encouraged to pick a whiskey cocktail from the menu and boy do they make good cocktails here!
If there’s one thing you do on a trip to Dublin, make it this....
A small group of us recently had a private whiskey tasting with John on a trip to Dublin. We had such an amazing evening (even though I’d have said I wasn’t the biggest whiskey fan before doing this….though was sold after the delicious introductory cocktail) and can’t thank John enough! So fun and yet informative, I’ve been recommending him to all my friends since getting home! Thanks a mil, we’ll defo be back!
