Clonakilty Distillery

Clonakilty Distillery is located in the heart of West Cork.  Opened in 2019, it is less than an hour outside of Cork city and offers an ideal stopping point for visitors travelling along the Wild Atlantic Way. Tours are fully guided and include tutored tastings of premium whiskeys and gin.  Visitors are treated to a hands-on experience, and can witness the distillation of gin and whiskey in a real working distillery.

They have a visitor store which sells distillery-only available premium whiskeys, (proving popular among connoisseurs), as well as other fun memorabilia and gifts.

If you work up an appetite, drop into the Whale’s Tail Bistro for lunch or dinner, and enjoy a taste of fresh, local cuisine.  If you visit on a Saturday evening, why not book a Gin School experience, and learn how to distill your own bottle of gin?
