What To Expect
Irish Whiskey Museum
Embark on a journey through time in a historic setting, as the intriguing tale of Irish whiskey is revealed. Learn about its rise to glory, its dramatic fall and of course, its current revival. Experience a story never told before in such a unique setting, during an hour-long interactive experience. Daily guided tours unveil the humble beginnings of Irish whiskey, when a foul tasting liquid was used to ease the woes of a troubled and poor nation. Known originally in Gaelic as uisca beatha, over time it was translated to whiskee, and then to whiskey, as it is known today. Enjoy listening to entertaining storytellers as they take you through the magical tale. At the end of the tour there’s a generous whiskey tasting led by experienced master whiskey tasters, giving you the opportunity to sample a range of excellent Irish whiskeys and learn the subtle differences between them, discovering the unique flavors locked inside.

4.00The tour itself was good - our guide told entertaining stories of the history of whiskey in Ireland. However the tasting was impersonal - the bar tables were set up for our very large group and there was no real interaction with the staff.

2.00I've done numerous whiskey tasting tours and by in large this was the least impressive. The lady presenting the tour wasn't happy when we answered her questions even though it was opened up to the group .When discussing the whiskey we tasted among ourselves, she asked us to be quiet while everyone else was talking. We know it was only samples but these were the smallest I've ever had.
Highly recommend
