Ireland is very well-known for its whiskey, so whiskey-lovers should make sure to experience some on their visit to Dublin. At the Davenport, we made a selection of places to go that will give you the ultimate Whiskey-experience.
The Irish Whiskey Museum
Visiting the Irish Whiskey museum will be a very interactive experience. The museum is very centrally located just across the main entrance of Trinity College. The tour will tell you everything about Irish whiskey through the ages, without being focused on one brand. At the end of the tour you get the chance to taste three different Irish whiskeys.
