Time To Start Again

Forgive me Irish Whiskey fans.

It’s been a year since my last blog.

COVID has been hard on everyone.

Here in Ireland pubs closed, distilleries closed and tourism fell off a cliff.

It’s starting back again, albeit slowly.

Casks Away has survived and is willing & able to show you round the sights, sounds and smells of Irish Whiskey Distilleries.

Ahascragh Distillery

There has been a positive boom of Irish Whiskey Distillery expansion and diversity during the pandemic.

Many new names, brands and bottles have been appearing.

Over the next few months I’ll be updating you in the latest developments and hopefully tempting yourselves to get out there & sample a few!

Tours are available with Casks Away.

Just be aware at the time of writing (Oct ‘21) masks are mandatory for public transport vehicles and a valid EU COVID pass or proof of vaccination is required to enter licensed premises.

Stay safe and see you soon!

The Crolly Distillery

The Crolly Distillery are finalising their vision to open a whiskey distillery on the site of the famous Crolly Doll Factory in Donegal.

The copper pot stills are in situ and will be the first to produce whiskey in Donegal for over 180 years.

A visitors centre is also being opened to welcome tourists from far and wide to this stunningly scenic area of Ireland.

Casks Away would like to invite you on a trip to sample the sights, sounds and fabulous aromas of this distillery when fully open.
