The Teeling distillery tour in Dublin
The Teeling tour shows you a working distillery, then ends with a tasting. It is at 13–17 Newmarket in the Liberties, Dublin 8.
Teeling's own site lists five tours. The basic Teeling Tasting costs €22 and takes 50 minutes. The Trinity Tasting costs €26, and the Distillery Select Tasting €35. The Irish Coffee Academy costs €55, and the Distillery Exclusive tour €60.
On GetYourGuide, tours run every 20 minutes. The listing says to book ahead in busy months.
Teeling distillery tickets: GetYourGuide or the distillery
The basic ticket costs the same €22 on both. GetYourGuide adds free cancellation up to 24 hours before. The distillery's own page has the dearer tours with more whiskeys.
Working distillery or museum?
Pick a distillery if you want to see where the whiskey is made. The Teeling listing calls it a fully working distillery. Roe & Co and Pearse Lyons also show their making process on the tour.
The Irish Whiskey Museum is a museum, not a distillery. It tells the story of Irish whiskey in four rooms, and then you taste. That suits a rainy hour on Grafton Street.
