    Overview
    More
    Since John Jameson's brave first steps into this building in 1780, we've been focused on his ambition to create unforgettable experiences (along with great whiskey, of course). The new look Jameson Distillery Bow St. carries on this ambition through five fully guided experiences: Bow St. Experience Distillery Tour, Premium Whiskey Tasting, Whiskey Blending Class, Whiskey Cocktail Making Class, and a Cask Draw Experience in Dublin's only Live Maturation Warehouse - all of which have a firm focus on immersive storytelling. You'll be invited to touch, smell, and most importantly, taste Jameson in the original Bow St. Distillery buildings. The only way to get closer to the source would be to have John Jameson guide you through the distillery himself.

    Informative and interesting

    No whiskey is actually produced here, but we knew this beforehand. It seems as though some fellow visitors were disappointed to discover this upon arrival. We went for the experience and enjoyed our tour. Lawrence, our tour guide, was great! I'm not a fan of...More

    Day out with Dublin friends

    I was recommended to do this while staying up here in Dublin by a member of staff in the Hilton Dublin Airport, it was very educational and I would highly recommend people to go do this whilst staying in the Dublin area.

    Fun tour

    The tour guide told us a lot of the process of making whiskey. There was a video show projected on a large wall. We were brought into a tasting room and given 3 samples. Learned how each one was different and why. Very educational. Free...More

    If you like whiskey......

    Learned a lot and the tasting at the end was really nice. They did a nice job on the history and all about distilling.

    High production value

    Not a bad tour. This was our third whiskey tour of the day. They do a good job of talking about their processes, and the presentations are well put together. The tasting isn’t so much about trying different Jameson products but comparing Irish, Scotch, and...More

    I had my name engraved on a hip flask. You just go to the engraving machine in the shop and enter your name on the computer screen. Hope this helps.

    Hey, if you walk to The Point Luas Stop from where you (10 minute walk) , take the Luas to Smithfield (approx. 20 minutes), then the distillery is down near the square in Smithfield - watch out for the directional signage.
