Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events Kerry

12/10/2024

Last night, Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events Kerry was part of a fam trip for a lovely group of MICE companies from Ireland & the UK, exploring the beautiful town of Tralee. Invited by Kerry Convention Bureau and The Rose Hotel Tralee, the experts were treated to a bespoke Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass in the fabulous setting of the Rós Buí Terrace. An exciting venue, a brilliant group and it has been an absolute pleasure to take part in showcasing what Kerry has to offer.

Now that the dust has settled after Sunday's launch of our new Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass, we would like to say what a brilliant venue McCaffrey's Bar Tralee is for a gin or whiskey tasting. Cosy for small groups with enough space for bigger numbers of spirit lovers to gather for a great tasting experience.

Go to our website to book your own tasting experience with Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events Kerry. The Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass is available as a pre-dinner event for couples' date nights, small friends & family groups, all sorts of private celebrations, large and small, and corporate events as well. Alongside our various whiskey tasting options, we are open for bookings all year round.

Last night, we had the best time welcoming a local group of gin lovers to the launch of our Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass. It was such a pleasure to host these lovely people who massively enjoyed the unique flavours of our local gins and the brand stories of Kerry's craft producers Skellig Six18 Distillery, Di**le Distillery and Killarney Brewing & Distilling Co. We finished the session with an incredibly well-received Irish Negroni, introducing the Valentia Island Vermouth for the first time. A special treat was the zesty citrus-infused milk chocolates made by Tralee Chocolate Heaven.

Thanks to the 2024 Kerry Rose Emer Dineen, Suzan O'Gara of the Kerry Rose Centre, Kerry Radio's one and only Elaine Kinsella, the amazing Emma O'Connor, my favourite barber Labi and his beautiful partner Hanna for being such a great group for our 1st Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass. Also, a big shout out to the team of McCaffrey's Bar Tralee for their hospitality.

For more details about our Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass, prices and booking, visit our website, message us or ask our lovely guests for their recommendations ;)

Talking about neighbours: These two dear fellas truely are from the same hood. While the Liberator Whiskey matures in the historic storehouse on the grounds of the O'Connell's Lakeview Estate in Fossa, Killarney Brewing & Distilling Co. has settled a few hundred meters further down the road and set up an impressive home for their brewing and distilling business. Our guests love this Killarney connection!

We are beyond excited to add another brilliant local product to our tasting range. The lovely sweet Valentia Island Vermouth will become an essential part of our newest Kerry tasting package. We gonna share all the details soon. For now we are just happy to hold this beautiful addition in hands. Aaand as you can see, a cheeky drop already touched our lips :)

Here's a little throwback to our first tasting event in the whiskey parlour at Pig's Lane in Killarney. We had the great honour and pleasure of introducing a fantastic group of Teknologföreningen from Finland to our Kerry Whiskey Experience. We all were amazed by the atmosphere in this very unique venue and the feedback we got from the good folks from Finland blew us away.

Not only two favourites of our Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events but also South Kerry neighbours. Hailing from Cahersiveen and Portmagee, only a short 15-minute ride separates Skellig Six18 Distillery from Portmagee Whiskey. So when spending time in this beautiful part of the Kingdom of Kerry, check out their tour offerings. They are both amazing!

Once more, we are up to something new! We don't want to say too much, but there might or might not be gin from Kerry involved. And we just got brand new glassware 🤫

Such a pleasure to host a group of volunteers of the Tralee Chamber for a very special Kerry Whiskey Experience at Baily's Corner. Ada, Catherine, Marie and John (not in the picture) kept the conversation flowing, and enjoyed a few drops of gin and whiskey from their home county Kerry.

When our spirit-loving guide Jitka visited South Kerry on Saturday, it would have been rude not to stop in Cahersiveen and take a look around Skellig Six18 Distillery. Craft-distilled gin from Cahersiveen and Atlantic-aged whiskeys are at the heart of this distillery. Their amazing products regularly receive high praise during our tastings and masterclasses.

You can hear more about the O'Connell family behind the brand, learn where the inspiration for the Skellig Six18 brand was taken from and, of course, sample their gin & whiskeys during our Kerry Whiskey Experience and our new Queens of the Kingdom Gin Masterclass. See our website for more details (link in comments).

Last Saturday, our expert guide Jitka made the best of the great weather and spent her day in South Kerry, visiting our good friends at Portmagee Whiskey. The Barrack Murphys, James and John, took good care of her, and she enjoyed listening to their amazing story and future plans. There might or might not have been a few drops of whiskey involved, as well.

Portmagee Single Pot Still is a regular winner of our Kerry Whiskey Experience and an outstanding whiskey, not to be missed. If you want to hear more about Portmagee Whiskey and sample their great stuff, book us for a Kerry Whiskey Experience (s. link in comments). And if you happen to be in South Kerry, give James & John a call!

For us, tasting quality spirits is not just a matter of the right choice of liquid. Sampling from the right nosing glass is an essential part of a great experience. At Kingdom Whiskey, we use the fab Cruit glasses from Túath Glass for our tastings. The Cruits not only look great and have a nice feel in your hand, but they also give us the perfect tasting experience. From nosing to drinking, the Cruit enhances our sensual journey through the spirits. You should join one of our tastings and find out for yourself. So, jump on our website (link in the comments), book one of our tastings in Di**le or Tralee and sample local spirits from the perfect nosing glass.
