She was very knowledgeable about the entire thing. Also - this place is BEAUTIFUL. It literally sparkles, it's so beautiful and new. The place is gorgeous, had spared no expense in your comfort, and is producing amazing gin and whiskey. You need to come here and hold it up to other more long-standing and 'prestigious' Irish whiskey products and prepare to be amazed. Take some home! You and your friends will never be sorry - and thank Chloe while you're at it!

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 .

This is not a distillery tour. It is an education in Irish whiskey -- and a genuinely memorable…read moreone. The Midleton Distillery Experience is home to seven iconic Irish whiskey brands: Jameson, Redbreast, Powers, Midleton Very Rare, The Spot Whiskeys, Method and Madness, and Knappogue Castle. The site itself is the original Old Midleton Distillery, and walking through it means moving through restored 19th-century warehouse buildings where whiskey has been aged in oak casks for generations. The history is embedded in the walls, and the experience is designed to make sure you actually feel it rather than just walk past it. We booked the private premium tasting tour, and the decision to go private changed the entire dynamic of the visit. Our tour guide -- French by birth, now based in Ireland having moved to learn English -- was exceptional. His enthusiasm for Irish whiskey was completely genuine, his knowledge was deep, and his ability to translate that knowledge into something both accessible and fascinating made the experience far better than any standard group tour could have. The kind of guide who makes you leave knowing things you did not expect to know when you arrived. The premium tasting takes you through four prestige whiskeys from the distillery's range, each contextualised properly rather than just poured and moved on from. The difference between what's available here and what you find on a standard shelf is immediately apparent. The highlight, and the moment that made the visit stick: I purchased a cask strength expression at 61% and bottled it myself directly from the cask. That is a singular experience -- standing in a working distillery, filling your own bottle from a numbered cask, corking it by hand. It is not a gimmick. It is exactly what it sounds like, and it earns every penny. If you are in the Cork area, include this in your itinerary without hesitation. The experience here is more thorough and personal than anything the Dublin distillery offers. Go private if you can, and stay long enough to bottle something.

Paul's deep knowledge of all things Ireland--from its rich history and culture to its hidden gems--was truly impressive. Even more remarkable was his pride and passion for sharing it all with us. I gave Paul a few ideas of what we hoped to see and do, and he took that list and turned it into the most unforgettable experience. Every day was perfectly curated and filled with moments we'll be talking about for years to come. His thoughtful planning, flexibility, and attention to detail made the trip feel seamless and incredibly special. We are forever grateful to Paul for making our time in Ireland so memorable. If you're looking for someone who brings Ireland to life and goes above and beyond, Paul is your guy!
