If you love distilleries, and would like to visit a distillery on a human scale, then Stillgarden Distillery might be just what you’re looking for! Located in Dublin’s Inchicore district, the distillery offers you the chance to discover the inner workings of a modern Irish distillery, with its innovative production methods. Every year, gin and other original spirits are produced here, and they manage to hold their own in a crowded market!
Don’t let the size of the building fool you: although Stillgarden Distillery is still one of Dublin’s smaller distilleries, it’s no less exciting! Considered a rising star in Dublin spirits production, the establishment distinguishes itself by distilling only gin, as well as a range of spirits for cocktails.
Here: no whiskey. The focus is on gin, an increasingly fashionable spirit in Ireland. (More and more gin distilleries are springing up on the Emerald Isle).
If you’re interested in this type of beverage, the establishment offers a guided tour! An opportunity to find out more about distillation methods, and the process used to create aromatic, tasty new drinks!
The visit begins with a welcome drink, followed by a tour of the distillery, with its laboratory, vats and stills, and state-of-the-art equipment.
Finally, you’ll enjoy a question-and-answer session with one of the distillery’s experts.
The tour lasts just 20 minutes, but is well worth it if you’re passionate about the subject. To be enjoyed only by adults, of course, and remember: these beverages should always be consumed in moderation!
