    Very enjoyable tour!
    Full disclosure: I'm not a whiskey drinker. We did this for the husband. But for the first time in my life, I tried whiskey and enjoyed it! This was due to learning the proper tasting method, thanks to our tour guide. The tour was fun and informative, and now I can go on with my life, occasionally taking a taste of whiskey and not hating it.
    Thanks so much for your feedback and amazing to hear that you are now not against having a dram or two Madeleine Customer Experience Manager

    More personal whiskey tour
    My boyfriend and I did this tour and we loved it! Fergus was our guide and he was so great. Funny, engaging, knowledgeable, and happy to answer any questions. It was so fun to be able to see the active distillery and even more fun to taste the whiskeys. We did the tasting of three whiskeys and really enjoyed every one of them. The whiskeys are great! We got some items from their gift shop on the way out and tried a cocktail at their bar. It was a great experience all around.
    Thanks MAggie for the lovely review on Fergus and his tour but also of course, happy to hear you enjoyed every whiskey you tried :) Madeleine Customer Experience Manager

    Great Vibe!
    We were excited to tour this distillery and it did not disappoint. We had a fantastic guide! Brian, thank you so much for a great experience! He was extremely thorough on the processes and explained it in a fun way. As much as we loved the tour, the best was yet to come with the tasting. I would recommend getting the four samplers. There were a few people in the group that out loud said they wished they had. We didn’t try the cocktails, but I can tell you everyone at our table that got them were unanimous they were crazy delicious. Their whiskey does NOT disappoint. Try The Single Malt, oh that yummy warm chocolate, it will leave an impression. I love the Peaky Blinders family vibe this place brings! Great building, cool location and a badass flaming Phoenix, the only thing missing is Aunt Polly :)
    Thyank you so much Shannon for such great feedback on your time here with not only Brain but on teh whiskeys, the building and the vibe. Fantastic to see reviews like this :) Madeleine Customer Experience MAnager

    Really great tour
    Marc did a wonderful job, conveying a lot of information with humor and enthusiasm. We did a basic tour that ended with a small glass of Teeling and a summer cocktail that contained Teeling. That was perfect for us. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We were on a Hop On Hop Off bus and took a chance that a tour would be available. We arrived at 2:45 and they put us on the 3pm tour. :-)
    Thanks for the 5 star review on your time here with us and in particular, Marc and his tour. Madeleine Customer Experience Manager

    Informative, fun distillery tour in Dublin!
    Thank you Rory for an incredible tour! We learned about Irish whiskey, the history of Telling, and had a great time tasting both the whiskey pour and cocktail. Rory was incredibly informative, and the space is absolutely beautiful. Out of the other distillery tours we did in Dublin, this was the only one where we could see the distilling room. Highly recommend for any whiskey lovers!

    Worth the stop. Nice job Gavin!!!
    Gavin did a great job explaining the process and history of the distillery. Unlike Jamison (which is a good tour too), they actually distill the whiskey on premises. Worth a stop to explore the diversity of products available.
    Great to hear you thought the stop was worth it and thanks for the great feedback on Gavin Madeleine Customer Experience Manager

    Fun way to learn about the history and production of Irish whiskey
    This is a fun and informative tour on the history and making of Irish whiskey. Our guide, Rory, was very friendly and knowledgeable. This is an actual working distillery, so you get a more hands-on feel than the Jameson tour, which is more theatrical, but also enjoyable. A tasting at the end was nice.

    The must visit Distillery Tour & Experience!
    Amazing time at Teeling’s Distillery Tour! Our guide, Gary, was very knowledgeable about the history and the whiskey making process. Gary was hilarious as well! I chose the Distillery Select Tasting (4 kinds) and it was an excellent array of Irish Whiskey with different flavors & notes. My girlfriend doesn’t drink whiskey but she enjoyed the Small Batch and the cocktail they gave. Overall, great experience with Gary and Teeling’s!
    Thank you very much andrew for such lovely feedback on your time here with us and in particualr Gary. Fantastic to hear that you enjoyed the whiskeys and that your girlfriend also liked it despite not drinking whiskey. Madeleine Customer Experience Manager

    Whiskey lovers, don’t miss touring Teeling!
    We booked directly through Teeling as we had passes for the tour from Teeling promotions in the US. I went into this tour biased. It is my favorite Irish whiskey. It didn’t disappoint. The tour includes history of whiskey making in Ireland, a short video about Teeling, a tour of their downtown distillery, and sampling options. They also have a bar with delicious cocktails as well as other labels to try and a gift shop. Our tour guide, Stephen, was knowledgeable and friendly, answering everyone’s questions and providing a delightful experience. He also guided me to my additional samplings at the Bang Bang bar after the tour. My bartenders were fabulous, ready and willing to discuss the unique tastes and profiles of Teeling products. I also have to comment on the facility. This is an active distilling operation. It is clean, well laid out, and clearly a lot of attention was paid to the buildout of the distillery and surrounding areas for the tour. Sláinte!
    Thank you so much for such a great review on your time here with us, in particular Stephen. It is always great to hear we are favourites for people and the feedback on the team here is always appreciated. Thanks again and hopefully see you at some stage again Madeleine Customer Experience Manager

Had a superb tour of a really stunning distillery - brilliantly curated by James. Plethora of fascinating fasts woven into the very visible distilling process. You are right in the 82 proof air of the production facility with a deep engaging explanations of field to bottle to palate experience of Irish - Dublin local distillation and maturation. Highly recommended.

Visited with hubby and friends after walking from the centre on a cold windy morning. Building is lovely and distinctive. Staff all friendly and approachable. The tour was closed on the day we visited ( we did know) so we had the tasting session- 12euros for 3 whiskeys after walking through the visitor experience. Gavin was our taste guide and was really informative and knowledgable. We tried the small batch, the single grain and the single malt. Two of us weren't really whiskey drinkers but really enjoyed trying and my hubby enjoyed finishing what i didn't. Also tried poteen and did a bit of wall graffiti ( visit and you will find out). Staff couldn't do enough for us and we were really impressed. There is a cafe and a gift shop on site.

I hadn't tried any whiskey by my last day in Ireland, so I decided to stop in at Teeling Distillery for a tour. The small museum exhibit before the tour was interesting and informative. Once you get into the distillery on the tour, it is pretty much impossible to hear the tour guide because of the noise. It would be great to have some type of amplification for the guides so guests could hear. After the distillery, it's into the tasting room. Each person/couple had their own table for the tasting, which was all set up depending on which tour you purchased. Great directions for sampling our whiskey and really delicious whiskey cocktail! I wanted to spend some time sipping mine, while everyone else just bolted their drinks and left, but I didn't feel rushed at all. I will definitely look for this in the U.S.

We did the tour and tasting and was nice to learn about Irish whisky especially from a young distillery company. Our tour guide Fionn was great. Explained thing very well. The tasting was really nice. They let us sample whisky straight and a mixed version of it. Both very delicious.

Add this to tour pilgrimage of Irish Whiskey Distilleries, historical, charming and with a very high quality production facility. It was missing the distinct storehouse intrinsic with other distilleries, and the distinct scent of the Angel's Share which makes sense, being in the centre of a city and all, but that's a tiny grouse in an otherwise must do tour for any local history or whiskey afficionado.

Enjoy, get the Irish Coffee, I don't know what they do different but I can't stop thinking about it.

Teeling has exceeded my expectations! We checked out Jameson 2 days prior and thought it was good but Teeling truly knocks it out of the ball park!

Amazing staff, Julia was our guide and she was very knowledgeable, helpful, and confident! We loved everything about this distillery.

The moment you walk in you immediately have a pleasant light aroma of the process of their whiskey and in your tour, you actually walk through the making of their whiskey!

At our tasting we had the seasonal cocktail which was winter spiced tea and it was so smooth and so soft that you will crave for another one! We also did the upgrade and added the “hot pot” which is an infused hot beverage (see pics!)

At the bar, we met Darren and he answered our questions confidently and was super friendly and easy to talk to. We are so happy we did this tour as we have not really heard a lot about Teeling.

This is my very first review and I typically do not make the time to post a review but this experience I had to share. If you ever make your way to Dublin, make this your very first choice to experience!

This is less commercial than say the Guinness factory, but it is the real deal for those who want to see an actual working distillery.

When we went they were draining out the wort from the tanks and it smelled awful, but harden up: it’s what the place will smell like some days.

I wouldn’t bring anyone here who wasn’t legitimately interested in seeing how whiskey is made. But for those who are, you’ll find the tour cost includes a tasting and a (very good if potent) cocktail that itself would go for the tour price.

Allow 30-40 mins for the tour, and time to sober up if you get a little bit too enthusiastic about whiskey tasting after you’ve skipped lunch. >_>

We both really enjoyed the tour. Stephen was great and had a lot of knowledge of the history of distilling whiskey in Dublin, from the golden triangle to the present day. This site started in 2012 and is run by two brothers. It's a great space to visit, lots of wall art create a trendy urban vibe. We went for the Trilogy tasting but wish we'd tried the more expensive option as we enjoyed everything that we tasted - the single grain was our favorite. Wish we'd had more time to sample more whiskey and maybe a cocktail at the onsite bar. Much preferred this tour compared to Jameson as it is a working distillery. Recommended.

A great little distillery and a great experience. It was great to see the basics in operation all the way to tasting the final product. First time, despite visiting many distilleries, that I saw the early result of grain mixed with water moving on to a yeast mix, or wash, and to see the clear stuff bubbling in from the potstill. The tasting was very informative and enjoyable, hosted by Adam, and the whiskys were fantastic superseded only by the cocktails that followed in the super atmospheric bar. Thanks also to Gavin and Christine who all made the tour and experience so enjoyable. If you find yourself in the Liberties, get in here, and if you don’t ask a local cabbie to take your there. Thanks guys for a wonderful experience, made our day.

Opened quite recently. It is one of many destilleries that used to be located in this part of the city. Fortunately there are plans to re-open more of them shortly. Teeling did a good job. Tours are interesting, not too long, not too short. Hosts are funny and can tell many interesting stories about this destillery, but also history of this Dublin area. Back in XVIII/XIX century about 80% of global whiskey production was located in here - Golden Triangle (radius of only about 2 km), where 37 destilleries were located. There are different ours options available, of course including whiskeys degustation. Nice gift shop and bar also available.
