It was great! Linda was very sweet and knowledgeable on the history of Irish coffee. She gave great pointers and was very easy to talk to. The whole class was short but part of the fun was just drinking our creation and socializing. Definitely would recommend, especially for the price:)

    Do not book with Viator

    AJ_W, Sep 2025
    This review is for Viator. Viator is a scam. If you want to go to the Irish whiskey museum book directly with Irish whiskey museum they are awesome and the tours are great but Viator is terrible crappy customer service and has cost me $200 cad because they said I lied about a weather closure of the London cable car which I only wanted a partial refund on. And in Belfast I was at the titanic Belfast museum so long I couldn’t make the hopon bus in Belfast so no refund for that either. SCAMMERS DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY BOOK DIRECTLY WITH COMPANIES VIATOR WILL SCAM YOU

    A really nice experience....

    Hailey was so welcoming. It was my first irish coffee so i was happy she helped us along the way. Loved her knowledge of both coffee and whiskey. The Irish coffee was so tasty.

    Great Experience

    Michael_A, Jan 2025
    Hailey was excellent. The whole experience was grand! The entire group was well engaged. Don’t let the stairs frighten you; there is a lift.

    Coffee with a twist

    Thomas_N, Oct 2024
    Matt was fantastic. He explained the history of Irish coffee and was very helpful and enthusiastic about making the coffee with us. His knowledge accompanied by his personable nature made him a great instructor! Thanks for a fun experience and will certainly recommend to my friends

    Short, sweet, delish!

    Arlena_J, Oct 2024
    Short & sweet! A quick activity that’s a good bargain. Worth it to understand how to make the perfect Irish coffee, a little bit of history on whiskey and Ireland in general, a really nice host, and an Irish coffee to enjoy! If you go here, I recommend also booking a tour of the whiskey museum afterwards, so you can make it the full experience.

    Most fun learning!

    Sarah_W, Oct 2024
    Lydia was amazing. Very personable and so fun to have a class! She was also very patient with everyone. Def recommend.

    Brean lead us through the history and art of Irish coffee making. He personalized the experience by telling his family stories and including all of our tales as if we were old friends. Quick fun experience for those maximizing their Dublin time

    Yummy!!

    Heather_M, Aug 2024
    It was so much fun and, of course, the coffee was amazing. Our teacher was wonderful and very knowledgeable.

    Excellent opportunity to learn more about Irish drinks

    fabian1boettcher, Jul 2024
    This tour was very interesting. Collin was a very nice and invested guide teaching us how to make Irish coffee while as well giving us some historic background. Let's not forget that the coffee tastes good as well :)! The Irish Whiskey museum is located in the very hearth of Dublin and is easy to find.

    Nice to pass the time

    Erin_Z, Jul 2024
    Coffee was really great. Enjoyed the vibe and enjoyed the quick, low key class. We did this after getting in early and it was a perfect way to pass the time while fighting jet lag.

    Good times

    Jade_G, Jun 2024
    So fun! It is perfect amount of time and a fun class. Very easy to get to and well timed. Our instructor had a good sense of humor and was very nice. They had great suggestions for whiskey, and other things to do while visiting.

    Well worth it!

    Nancy_S, May 2024
    Loved that it was a small group in a pub setting! Instructor was knowledgeable and fun. We had a great time!

    Better than expected!

    mvmvshop, May 2024
    Even better than expected. Hosted by the Irish Whiskey Museum, it was a great review of whiskey in Ireland and then a simple mixing of your own Irish Coffee (with Whiskey). Charming host (Keith), interesting decor in the tasting room and nice gift shop. Fun whiskey-related t-shirts.

    Fun for tourists

    meabh_B, Apr 2024
    Good for tourists but not so much for locals. Was a nice time and history was interesting, the guide was funny

    Great class, great guide. Learned a ton!

    Lindsey_T, Apr 2024
    We had an absolute blast and learned so much about the history of whiskey and the Irish coffee. Our guide, Stewart, was fantastic. We stayed after the class and grabbed another round in the museum’s bar to take advantage of their selection. Would definitely recommend. Can’t wait to make Irish coffee at home!

    Irish Coffee Masterclass

    Pieter_D, Apr 2024
    Tour guide was excellent and funny. Learned a lot of interesting facts and had a great time. The museum and bar itself was also pretty interesting and had a great selection of peated Irish whiskys.

    Don’t bother

    Michele_F, Mar 2024
    It was a very over priced cup of coffee. No tasting other than the tiny shot in your coffee. Don’t bother.

    Irish Coffee 101! ***** :)

    Helen_B, Dec 2023
    Loved our instructor, Briain, his humour and the stories he shared with us. We can now make the perfect Irish coffee!

    The coffee/whiskey mash up

    Jewel_M, Aug 2023
    Since this is a new tour offered there were pnly 3 participants which allowed for my many on and slightly off topic inquiries. The gentleman was incredibly informative, fun, and entertaining during the class. While giving the history of Irish Coffee we were given a complete history of Irish Whiskey as well. The decorations on the wall were realized to actually be our educational board which made the class flow smoothly somewhat akin to a trivia game given that Irish Whiskey and Coffee history entertwined with American history. Either way, the historical events affected several countries. His radiant and jubilent outward expression in giving questions and receiving answers made the excitement of the class that much more fun and entertaining. I learned a lot and didn't do too bad on my first time go of making my own authentic Irish Coffee. Highly recommended for fun and education. Want something different in reference to Whiskey? Well, here ya go. A little about me, I am not fond of coffee, but this class was excellent for even me. So glad I decided to take the tour.

    Must do!!

    Sidney_C, Jul 2023
    Our teacher was very well informed and incredibly funny! He had to struggle through a lot of technical difficulties but still crushed it and made it very memorable!!
