Killarney Brewing & Distilling

Killarney Distilling Company is ideally situated at the gateway to the world-famous Ring of Kerry. The owners of the company are embarking on an exciting new venture in the production of Single Malt and Single Pot Still Irish Whiskeys following on from their successful legacy of brewing in the county with Killarney Brewing. 

The modern design of the facility exemplifies the new age of distilling in Ireland, the three traditional copper pot stills paying homage to the classic method of Irish Whiskey distillation and to those who developed the craft.

The striking design of the new craft distillery, craft brewery, and visitor center, combined with the panoramic views of the McGillycuddy Reeks and the Gap of Dunloe, makes the facility an unrivaled destination.

Killarney Distilling Company whiskeys (currently sourced elsewhere while the distillery itself comes online) are crafted with fresh, naturally filtered spring water from the mountains of County Kerry. Their Master Distiller has crafted a unique blend centered around pot still whiskey for Killarney Whiskey. Matured in American oak casks, Killarney Whiskey combines grain, pot still, and single malt varieties, each contributing distinct flavors that result in a rich whiskey, perfect for sipping or mixing in cocktails. Meanwhile, they are diligently preparing their own distillery for future production.

Their first in-house whiskey is set to debut in 2028. As it matures gracefully in the Kerry air and the angels take their share, their Master Distiller will remain busy. He works alongside their Master Brewer to produce interesting small-batch brews and whiskies for the market.
