TOUR INFO:



Learning is fun and while a sip of Jameson can tell you everything you need to know about good whiskey, a tour of the Old Jameson Distillery can tell all you need to know about everything else.

No longer a working distillery, the lovingly restored machinery and recreated distillery scenes will take you through the seven stages of whiskey making - from malting and milling right through to maturation.

Allow our Guides to bring you through the fascinating story of Jameson smooth Irish whiskey from grain to glass. Surprise your friends with your discerning palate and boundless, newfound knowledge (they always knew you had it in you!).

You can explore the unique history of John Jameson – the man and the triple distilled Irish Whiskey - and maybe find out about the lost barrel, Gorgeous Gus McCann and what you’ll get if you ask for a ‘Jemmie’.
