Pearse Lyons Distillery: Guided Tour with 4 Tastings Tickets

Pearse Lyons Distillery Guided Tour with 4 Tastings

Pearse Lyons Distillery offers one of Dublin's most distinctive whiskey experiences in a converted 18th-century church in the Liberties district. This boutique distillery combines traditional Irish distilling methods with modern craft techniques, creating small-batch whiskeys beneath soaring stained glass windows and Gothic arches.

Your guided tour takes you through the complete whiskey-making process, from selecting the finest Irish barley to aging spirits in carefully chosen oak casks. You'll explore the working distillery with its gleaming copper pot stills, then visit the adjacent St. James's Graveyard to learn about the area's fascinating connection to Dublin's distilling heritage. The intimate setting allows for personalised attention throughout the hour-long experience.

The tour culminates with four expertly guided whiskey tastings: Pearse Original, Distiller's Choice, Founder's Choice (12-year-old single malt), and the exclusive Cooper's Select aged in sherry casks. Your guide explains the distinct characteristics and flavour profiles that make each whiskey unique, whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or new to Irish whiskey.
