Going back to school is fun!

The bartender experience at the distillery was the best and I'd highly recommend it. Our mixologist Conner was super friendly and very knowledgeable about the whiskeys that we were using for our cocktails.

Wonderful experience

Wonderful tour! Our tour guide was amazing! I forget his name, but he was French! So knowledgeable. We did the small group tour. The buildings were incredible to tour. Tastings were great, too.

Lovely experience for...

Lovely experience for those who love to drink :) Our tour guide was very energetic and informative on flavors to make the perfect drink.

Jameson nails the experience

Robbie_D, May 2024

It was great getting an understanding of the distillery as we walked to the special room upstairs for our class. Fortunate for us there was only one other couple at the same time so Zach, our cocktail expert, was not required to split his attention amongst a bigger group. I really enjoyed finding out different uses for the wonderful Jameson whiskeys, apart from drinking it neat of course 😉. I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for something different to a distillery tour or a traditional whiskey tasting, though we did avail ourselves of one at the end too.
