We did the tour together during our break in Dublin and had a great time! Really enjoyed listening to the history of the whiskey in an Irish twang! Enjoyed our free drinks, but also enjoyed the little bar area afterwards to try some delicious cocktails!

Growing in Western North Carolina, in the mountains outside Asheville, where our neighbors still produced their own mountain dew, I developed a taste for whisky (whiskey!) that I still indulge in. Jameson is my go-to choice for Irish coffee and a finger or two neat, and I suspect that the Irish might've taken over the world if it hadn't been for Guinness. I signed up for the "basic" tour with my daughter and really enjoyed the tour and presentation. Our guide enlivened his presentation with humor, a charming accent and decent acting chops. The tasting element of the tour was especially well-done, doing a far better job educating us about the differences between whisky and bourbon, single-malts and triple-distilled. than we might have, just bellying up to a bar with a chatty barkeep. Every tour includes a stop for the merch, and the Jameson's was no different, with some unusual goodies to tempt even the most jaded shopper. No spoilers here. Spring for the ticket and take a photo by the chandelier on your way out. Note - I travelled here in June 2019, pre-Covid, but I guess I waited too long to submit the review, and I could only choose March 2020 as the date of travel.…

I have tasted whiskey in some out-of- the-way places, including Japan, Taiwan and Tasmania, which were very good. The Irish claim that they invented distilling, and say that their whiskey is best. Compared to Scotch, which has a smoky taste from the peat, I'd have to say Jameson's is smoother. Since the tasting, I've bought a few bottles of Irish whiskey, which I enjoyed. By the way, the Jameson's distillery is now in County Cork, in the south of the island.…

Hi 619jeffry, Thanks for your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed our smooth taste, and that you've enjoyed Irish whiskey ever since your visit. As we like to say, Jameson is triple distilled so twice as smooth! We hope to welcome you back again sometime in the future. Best wishes, Jameson Distillery Bow St. Team

After visiting my first whiskey-related place in Dublin, I was full of doubts before visiting another attraction of this type. Fortunately, my fears were unfounded. The tour was terrific. The guide was very energetic, and he taught us a lot about the history and process of whiskey making. Everything was well prepared for each visitor. You get three small samples of whiskey (see my picture) - Scotch whiskey, American whiskey, and Jameson (Irish whiskey) in the tasting room. They explain why each one smells different, and they teach you to taste the subtle differences in each one. After that, we went to the bar and got some delicious cocktails. I’m not a whiskey fan, but it doesn’t stop me from recommending this tour. Enjoyable experience!…

Jameson distillery is a really cool, open plan building, with a large bar area in the wooden craft style. Obviously, with ongoing covid restrictions, it can't be enjoyed in the same way, but it is a great space. We visited last autumn to do a cocktail making class, which at the time was half price. That was incredible value for what we got for it. We learned to make whiskey sours, old fashioneds and a punch in a small and safe group. Our instructor Kieran was a good sport and really knowledgeable, and just made the whole thing great fun. I'd love to go back in the future and try a different tour experience, or just enjoy the bar.…
