We visited Drumshanbo for a long weekend with this tour being at the top.of our list. We were a large group (18) but were accommodated easily.
We were guided by Shane, who was very engaging and funny and with an experts knowledge of the distilling process. 
We had our delicious complimentary cocktail in the jackalope cafe with our lunch. We all agreed that the quality of the food and drink available was absolutely fantastic. Each and every member of staff at the Shed deserves huge praise for the way that this place runs - you would struggle to find fault.

Saoirse was an excellent guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the distillery and its story. The tour was very interesting and well organised, and the tasting at the end was a lovely way to finish. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area.

When we arrived we were met by Saoirse who was to be our tour guide. Saoirse was so friendly and explained everything as we went through the tour. No question was too silly and there was no rush. We went through the details of the Whiskey production and some tasting followed by the Gin tour, it was two tours in one. We finished off in the beautiful Honey Badger bar when Brian served us Gin cocktails. Again Brian was open to any questions we had about his craft. He was also a great photographer for our keepsake pictures. We then moved into the Jackalope cafe for a delicious lunch. Highly recommend a visit.
