Absolutely loved this tour! One of the best we have been on (and we have been to a few both back home in Canada and in Scotland). The tour host, Trish, was incredibly knowledgeable and gracious with her time and engagement. As they distill both gin and whiskey it is like getting two tours in one and despite having done whiskey tours before we feel like we still learned a few new things. The whiskey and gin are phenomenal and the whiskey is shockingly smooth considering the young age (you learn why on the tour). The gin is a bit dangerous as it has no bite and is all flavour. Wish we had more room in our bags to take more home. Could not recommend enough - we are so glad we stopped in for this. One of the highlights of the trip so far.

Lovely distillery on the beautiful West coast of Ireland. Stopped by on the way back from sightseeing as the previous day we had visited the Skellig Islands. Had a short wait for a distillery tour and tasting. More for my wife than me as I dont really like Whisky, however I do enjoy a gin and really enjoyed theirs. We brought a bottle of Whisky home with us too. After our tour it turns out I left my credit card in the shop, so a big thank you to Cathal for telling me and keeping it safe.

Today we had a very enjoyable and interesting tour of the Skellig Six18 distillery with our lovely and enthusiastic guide, Shannon. Great to learn about the local history and the production proces. And very important: the whiskey tasted great! It was inspiring and definitely recommended!
