The Ireland Whiskey Trail

Ireland is credited with having invented whiskey and the Ireland Whiskey Trail is your free touring guide to everything that is best about whiskey in Ireland. It includes the whiskey distilleries of Ireland - both past and present - but also the best whiskey pubs and bars in the country, the finest whiskey shops and some top class hotels and golf courses, where whiskey is as much at home as is excellence and hospitality. This Whiskey Trail is not just for people interested in whiskey - it is also for anyone who wants to enjoy some of the very best traditional Irish pubs in the country, who is looking to buy that special bottle of Irish whiskey or who is simply interested in Irish history and culture.
