Overview

Step inside Galway cities only working distillery for a one-of-a-kind journey into Ireland’s oldest spirits. Discover how whisky and poitín began as the same drink, separated only by the buying of a licence, and explore centuries of distilling tradition brought to life through our family’s 170-year-old illicit heritage.

Learn the secrets of brewing, mash bills, cask finishes and maturation, and see how we make whisky today using time-honoured methods. Along the way, you’ll hear stories of rebellion, craftsmanship and community that makes our Micil spirits truly unique.

Your experience includes three guided tastings – two styles of whisky plus a very special Heritage Edition poitín made with peated barley and oats.

It’s interactive, authentic, and an absolute must-do when visiting Galway.
