Absolutely loved this place. Charming location. The tour was informative and entertaining. The whiskey is really good.

I have been to over two dozen distillery tours between Kentucky and Tennessee. This one was pretty damn good. Very friendly tour guide was knowledgeable and connected with us. Started with a tasting of gin and vodka then the tour and finished with other whisky tasting and a cocktail. No bottles for sale on site, but they claim they are sold all over Europe and North America.

If you're visiting Dingle, and have any interest in distilled spirits, do not miss this place! Yes, there are the huge Irish Whiskey distilleries that export to the US, but we liked this better! This is a small business run by lovely, passionate people, and they are making some excellent products. We did the tour and greatly enjoyed hearing about their process, seeing and smelling the ingredients (so many botanicals!)! seeing the equipment and even getting to see, and carefully smell, inside the tanks in various stages of fermentation. I don't think I've ever been on a distillery, brewery or winery tour that let visitors get that close to the production. I also thought it was an excellent idea to have the vodka and gin tasting at the start of the tour and then whiskey tasting later, with cocktails at the end. I think we were able to actually taste and appreciate each product more with that break for our palates. The tour groups are kept small which was nice, and everyone was so friendly. I loved learning about the story behind their logo as well. The walk to the distillery from town is short and easy with just a short stretch across a bridge that doesn't have a sidewalk, but people were nice about not hitting or honking at pedestrians. Dingle products are are at the Duty Free shops at airports! We did some shopping before our flight out of Dublin.

One of the better distillery tours I've ever been on! I love that they are content with staying in Dingle and all the employees are so passionate about their whiskey, vodka, and gin. The inside of the distillery smells heavenly (probably because of the angel's share)! Our guide was amazingly knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. The tasting was very educational and I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it. It's unbelievable how well they are doing as it's impossible to get your hands on a bottle of their whiskey. However, if you're wanting to buy a bottle of the gin or vodka, you can find it in grocery stores! Awesome experience - definitely a must and worth checking out when in Dingle!

I mean it's already amazing whiskey with breathtaking views but they brought their chef from Dublin and proceeded to cook delicious BBQ and the biggest Lobster claw I've ever seen and eaten. Super friendly and passionate about their spirits. If you're in Ireland you need to go out of your way to get here and enjoy the scenery as well

On our recent visit to Dingle we had to make a stop at the Dingle Distillery. It is great to see a craft distillery in Ireland since so much of the whisky and spirits in Ireland are made by the big boys. Dingle Distillery does tours on a daily basis and you can call or stop by to make a reservation. I suggest getting on their list early since it is a small place and they fill up pretty easily. Currently on their tour you will only get to try their Gin and Vodka since they recently released their Whisky and have already sold out. We did get to try some of the whisky spirit which is the whisky before it is aged. That was some strong stuff and will make you go blind if you drink too much. Their gin and vodka are wonderful. The tour was fun and Liam was a hoot. I suggest getting a bottle either at a local liquor store or possibly at duty free. When I checked duty free, they only had the Vodka. They do export to the US but I have been able to find a location local to Dallas that carries it. I suggest stopping by if you are in the area.

Highly recommend this tour even if you're not a whiskey lover. Our tour guide Marie was not only very knowledgeable and passionate but very entertaining. She alone was worth the tour. The gin was my favorite read more

Met your representative at Dublin airport yesterday and I asked him for a sample of your 7 year Dingle Whiskey 76 Euros . He told me he had little left and he was more interested in another customer who got a sample of all the other whiskeys on display and was only interested in those who were buying. Why did he presume I was not buying and dismissed me . This person is representing your distillery at the airport . For a Kerryman from West Kerry I was not impressed and actually I did buy a bottle of that particular whiskey ! And brought it to Los Angeles. Please have a word in the ear with this person he is not representing you well . read more
Dingle Distillery was one of the first spots added to my Ireland itinerary months ago and the payoff was absolutely worth it! We had a reservation for a tour and tasting, showed up and they made it happen right on time. The tour takes about 1.15 hours and features a lot of detail on the process of distilling vodka, gin and whiskey...and of course it includes tastings of all three as well! You even get a behind the scenes tour of the process from start to finish. It's all fascinating and cool to learn a lot of the nuances that make each spirit in process. Definitely gave us a new respect for enjoying a good liquor on the rocks! Our tour guide was phenomenal! She was knowledgeable and passionate, friendly and all around fun from start to finish. She definitely made the experience extra fun, while still making it educational! The tour is short in distance, as the space is small for a distillery. But what it lacks in distance, it makes up for in interaction. The location is absolute perfection as well. Whether you arrive early or hang around after, access to downtown Dingle and the bay is literally right outside the gates. Overall, Dingle Distillery has been one of our favorite experiences so far. Can't recommend it enough! read more

This place is perfect! I recently became a whiskey drinker and have started getting into blends and flavors that makes whiskey what it is. From start to finish, the tours here are wonderful. the gentleman who was my guide, I believe his name was Cologne, was very informative, friendly and funny! I learned a lot about this wonderful place, and their delicious gin, vodka and whiskey. If you're in Dingle, please do yourself a favor and check this place out; you won't be disappointed! read more

My favorite distillery in all of Ireland!!! I am not a whiskey drinker but luckily their gin is top notch. Wish they imported to the states.

I've had better gin, I've had better vodka, and I've had better whiskey. That being said, this is definitely worth checking out. The space isn't huge and the tour itself takes but a few minutes. That being said, this is a can't miss experience in Dingle. What makes it so much fun is the tour guide. Our guide was this older gentleman who enraptured the crowd with fun tales, interesting history, and a very sharp whit. After learning some history and seeing how everything gets made you end the "tour" with a tasting. Again, not my favorites, but still super solid. They are also young, so with time I think they can only get better. Make sure to stop by and sign up for a tour ahead of time or call ahead so you know you have a spot. 76/100 read more

One of highlights of my recent trip to Dingle was our tour of Dingle Distillery. I have enjoyed their gin and vodka, and was very excited to see their operation up close. The tour was very informative and casual. The employees all seem to really love the brand and gave a great overview of what DD is about. The tour ended with an excellent tasting of the vodka and gin. The whiskey will be ready some time next year, and I'm excited to try it. read more

We went in late February and had a wonderful experience. Having been to several other distilleries in Ireland during our trip, Dingle remains a favorite. The distillery is obviously new and independent, and we loved the experience for it! We toured where each whiskey, gin and vodka bottle was made and hand-bottled. We enjoyed a great tasting and history from our guide. Only note - currently they do not have a license to sell bottles on property - so plan ahead and hit up the local off-license or grocery store to buy a bottle (or 2!). read more

Visited Dingle recently and on a perfectly awful, perfect weather day made it to the Dingle Distillery for a tour . Liam took great care to show us around while informing and amusing us as well . Enjoyed the intimate setting and attention along with the beautiful tasting room and accompanying spirits . He was also kind enough to give us a lift back downtown in the horizontal rain event . Wonderful experience, cheers Liam and will return on our next visit to the magical Dingle area ! -Michael and Erin from Green Bay read more
