Traveler reviews
Fantastic educational experience
Our blending experience with Andrew was absolutely 10/10, he did great entertainment and explaining of Irish whiskey history and every process of making it. Tasting experience was fun, and i learned alot. Had a great time in general, worth the money. Only recomend
Legendary Linda
Myself and my friend went on the blending experience. I was worried that it might be made for tourists being relatively local myself, however, Linda made the whole experience amazing. There was so many things that I learned about Whiskey and Irish history during the tour whilst Linda created an amazing, fun and warm atmosphere throughout. I couldn't recommend anyone from near or far to do this enough!
Greasy bloaters anonymous ( not very anonymous tho)
I'm personally terrible with names but she was short and an older woman name started with a c she was wicked new what she was talking about and made the experience excellent
Must try if you're unfamiliar with Irish whiskey
Very entertaining guide and great crash course in Irish whiskey!
A pleasant rediscovery
I had already been to this museum my first time in Dublin, and I decided to bring the friends who were with me this time. We chose the Blending Experience, which at the end of the tour allows you to taste 4 whiskeys and try to mix them in order to create your own personalized whiskey, which you can then take home in a small bottle suitable for hand luggage. Andrew, our guide, was very nice and engaging, precise and knowledgeable in telling the story of Irish whiskey, some curiosities, and answering all the questions; we were a group from so many different countries, he made sure to talk so that we all understood, and he exchanged a few words with each of us (as far as we are concerned, with a great Italian pronunciation!), as well as giving us several tips on great whiskey to try... and also on the best pubs in Dublin! We were very pleased with the experience.
