👍👍 An unforgettable 400 years old building. Nice and cozy place to know how to make whiskey, and realized what’s the special and difference between irish whiskey and others.

    Brand new distillery built into an historical building in the center of Dublin. Unlike some of the big whiskey tours, if you are lucky enough you might be able to get a private tour during the less busy time which gives a quite different than visits in large groups. The guides are knowledgeable and friendly and the tasting session is quite good. Make sure to stop at their bar to try some of their unique whikeys.

    Did the tour here yesterday, excellent experience, would highly recommend it. The work they have done on the old building is fantastic, it looks amazing and would be excellent for a Christmas party or work gathering. The tour guide Miriam was very funny and charming. Finished off lovely with a nice few samples of there lovely whiskeys. Brilliant spot

    I had an amazing time at the Dublin Liberties Distillery, my tour guide, Kelly (hope I'm spelling that right), was a treasure of information and anecdotes about both Dublin and the history of whiskey, and I got to learn a lot. The tasting caping off the tour is amazing as well and I enjoyed being guided through the different flavours and aromas of the whiskeys. This is definitely a must see for every whiskey lover !

    Kelly was an amazing tour guide. She was so knowledgeable about not only the distillery but also the history of the Liberties. We did 3 other distillery tours that day and Kelly was by far the best tour of the day. The building has been newly renovated as the distillery opened in 2019 and the bar has a really neat cigar lounge vibe…and of course the whiskey is delicious!

    I was here with my family, had an amazing time. Kelly was our tour and gave us an extensive insight on irish whiskey and the Liberties. We tasted the single malt and Dubliner and our kids had apple juice and ginge ale so they could join us in the tasting, such an amazing experince. Building with so much history behind it.

    We have been there in Nov 2022 and we have been quiet disappointed to be honest. Very short tour and tasting was also not too good. Just One 3 years and one 5 years old whiskey.

    Very nice tour given with lots of passion and love for whiskey. I never cared much for whiskey, but they really sparked my taste for it! Would definitely recommend!

    Best informative Distillery Tour in Dublin. Tour guides share that extra mile not on a script. Cool and edgy brands. Murder Lane is superb. 😃

    Great distillery tour. Our guide Kevin was very knowledgeable about the history of whiskey in Dublin and knows a lot about the building and area. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Jyotika Sofia L. 5 months ago on Google
    The tour guide Dara gave us an excellent experience. We were only two people on the tour and it gave us room to ask a lot of questions and have a talk about whiskey. Interesting to get to know a lot of Irish Whiskey history as well as getting to know the story of the country. Would recommend to visit!

    This was an awesome tour and to be honest my favorite Distillery tour that my wife and myself have been on in Dublin! Our guide was Kelly who was very interactive with us, knowledgeable about the whiskey and the dark history that Irish whiskey has overcome to make it to today. Highly recommend and if you're lucky enough you'll get Kelly! This we definitely a great birthday experience and I even splurged and got the Murder Lane Series 13 year old single malt!

    Had a wonderful time in the distillery. Small and cozy distillery in a historic building. My guide Kylie was really knowledgeable. I really enjoyed the part where she told me about the names of their whiskeys and the history behind it. Mad stuff! Would 100% reccomend the tour as they all are really nice.
