Surprise surprise it's raining.

What's the best way to spend a rainy Friday in Ireland I hear you ask.

Well for me today it is doing the Connoisseur tour @ Kilbeggan Distillery.

What a great tour, one of the best I have done so far.

First sample was the single grain.

then the small batch rye

next was the Tyrconnell 16 year old

last taste for the tour was the Connemara. This is Irelands only peaty/smoky whiskey. I actually have a bottle of this at home.

After the tour we could have another drink in the bar I had the Tyrconnell 10 year old.

And what better way to end a rainy day whiskey tour than with an Irish Coffee.

As part of the tour we also received a take home 200ml of Kilbeggan whiskey that we bottle ourselves, this is currently the only whiskey available that was distilled in Kilbeggan.
