Teeling Whiskey Distillery
The first new working distillery in Dublin in over 125 years when it opened in 2015, in the Liberties.
The call
Worth it if you are watching the budget and you only have one day.
Why
- 01
A genuinely operational craft distillery where you see the actual copper stills and taste small-batch whiskey from an independent producer.
Our read - 02
The honest catch: it's smaller and less spectacle-driven than Jameson, so visitors expecting a big polished show can come away feeling it's modest.
