Excellent guided visit and tasting experience - Clonakilty Distillery is located in the homonymous town, in Southwestern Ireland. It is a very modern distillery. We did a guided tour in the facilities and they are very new and wonderful. Also, the guide explained to us the manufacturing process of whiskey, which was very interesting. Also, we could learn a lot and at the end, we could do an excellent tasting experience.

Highly recommended! - Great visit with knowledgeable staff with heart for the distillery. A great tour that gave insight into the process of making whisky. The samples were varied and gave an impression of how the storage is used to give the different whiskies character. I have been on a tour in one that the big distilleries in Dublin, this was so much better! In a special class!

Modern distillery tour in Clonakilty - A modern whiskey distillery in Clonakilty. It is situated in the town with some beautiful views out the window of the town as a backdrop. The tour started out in a museum-like display of the area and the history of the family who owns the distillery. The tour featured two videos, a walk-through to see the distilleries, and a tasting. They store the whiskey for three years in barrels on the family farm on a cliff above the Atlantic ocean. They are proud of the family farm and the pure water that they use in the process. Like many of these tours, it was led by a member of the tour team who has learned the process, but never actually distilled whiskey. I’ve only been on one tour so far where the tour guide actually was distilling whiskey. Having said that it was a thorough and pleasurable tour.

Sensory and educational spirit tour - If you are interested in your Whiskey, Gin or Vodka this is a nice way to spend 90 minutes- interesting, educational followed by a very pleasant tasting experience at the end. I am not a whiskey or spirit consumer so I enjoyed the educational experience and leaning about the distillation process. The two ladies giving the guided tour were very friendly and knowledgable about the whole process. The smells and aromas as you go through the tour make it a very sensory experience. I would recommend this tour to anyone even if you are not a whiskey or spirit enthusiast
