Everything we expected and more - really enjoyable visit with knowledgable friendly staff. Interesting to see the old distillery site and good overview of how the whiskey is made. Felt it was good value for money and your length was just right. Groups kept to sensible size and never felt rushed.
Recommend and family friendly
The whole experience is amazing. I went 5 years ago and so much has changed in a good way. The tour is so worth the trip.
Easy to park & tours run regularly. The cafe on site was convenient and food was easy but good. The tour was very informative and interesting. The tastings were great and the drink at the end (Jameson with ginger and lemon) was great for a hot day!
Great tour and the guide was awesome
Wonderful tour with informative and entertaining guide. We learned a lot! We also participated in the extra tasting which was memorable and delicious! 🤤
Great experience at Midleton. The property is beautiful and in a lovely town. Our tour guide Cassy was incredibly knowledgeable and informative. She expertly answered the myriad of questions she was presented with. We opted for the higher priced premium tasting, which included a tasting of the distillery specific Jameson, Redbreast 15, and Midleton Very Rare. That too was a good experience overall, with a different host guiding us through the tasting, but it was definitely rushed. It was clear that the employee was under the gun to move us along. Each whiskey was wonderful, but it felt odd downing a taste of Midleton like a shot. The tour concluded with an included drink in the bar. Most of us opted for a Jameson and Ginger, made with Fever Tree ginger ale, given the unusually warm weather Ireland was experiencing. We also bought a “Spot” flight to sample three of those brand (Red Spot was amazing). Lastly, the wife and I perused the gift shop and the glorious Midleton vault of rare years and editions. Another employee, Michael, was informative and generous with his time as he talked about the whiskey’s history and the significance of the various releases. He had no problem answering our questions regarding bottles valued at tens of thousands of Euros, even though we were clearly not in the market for one. He was able to approach the whiskey from both the perspective of a collector and an enthusiastic consumer. Our time in the vault was almost like a second tour and we spent so much time in it that our adult children began to think we had gone missing. We finally left, purchasing a bottle of the Dair Ghaelach release, matured in casks made from the wood of a native Irish tree (which we learned is very rare). While its cost was dwarfed by many of the rare bottles present, it was definitely more than we are used to spending on a bottle. We intend to keep it as a collector’s piece, on par with “artwork.” However, Michael would probably encourage us to enjoy it on the many special occasions that life brings us : )
We recently enjoyed the Behind the Scenes Tour at the Jameson Distillery in Midleton, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. A special thank you to our guide, Joe, whose passion, knowledge, and enthusiasm brought the entire tour to life. His storytelling was engaging, informative, and delivered with genuine warmth and humour. Joe’s deep understanding of the history, craftsmanship, and heritage of Jameson made every part of the tour fascinating. The Behind the Scenes experience itself was exceptional, offering unique access and insights that you simply wouldn’t get on a standard visit. From the historic buildings to the production process and the expertly guided tastings, every detail was perfectly presented. Joe is a true ambassador for Irish whiskey and hospitality. His professionalism and ability to connect with guests made this one of the highlights of our visit to County Cork. Highly recommended for anyone with an interest in Irish whiskey, history, or simply a world-class visitor experience. Thank you, Joe, for an unforgettable tour! The Cashel Palace crew will be back!
The guides were excellent and had a great sense of humor. The tour was very informative and I learned a lot about Irish whiskey.
Our tour guide was friendly, personable and informative making our tour experience fun. - After the tour we enjoyed our tasting and another couple of drinks in the beautiful and inviting pub. We also enjoyed our light lunch in the cafe before picking out several items from the well appointed gift shop. All in all, I highly recommend adding this to any Cork area visit!
