If you’d like to learn a little more about one of Ireland’s most famous tipples, spend an hour here. You’ll find out why the Irish call it uisce beatha (water of life), how Dublin’s whiskey trade collapsed and why it’s on the rise again. The tour every half hour from 10.30am to 5.30pm also gives you a chance to taste at least three different types of whiskey.
