zeppysky Posted June 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 27, 2017 We will be in Ireland on a cruise in August of this year. I'd love some input on which of the Jameson Distillery tours are the best. Dublin or Cork? Or both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare VMax1700 Posted June 27, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I have only done the Cork one and as a non-whiskey drinker, I enjoyed it. Depending on your plans in Dublin and Cork, I would suggest going to the Jameson Distillery in Midleton, Cork and then in Dublin go to Guinness Storehouse and Teelings Distillery https://teelingdistillery.com/tasting-options/ then meander your way back to the ship!;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare eileeshb Posted June 27, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Don't forget blarney castle is just outside Cork as well, just over a half hour drive between blarney and midleton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivesLikeMario Posted June 28, 2017 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I think the one in Dublin just underwent a big renovation.

zeppysky Posted July 7, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted July 7, 2017 The Cork distillery has a "bus" tour that picks you up and takes you to the distillery. It is an extra 2 pounds or so. Does anyone have an opinion on whether it is a good idea to take their bus to get there on our own? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bus leaves/returns to Cork city, so you will need to get from Cobh into Cork (the train runs from just beside the cruise terminal) and also the return from Cork to Cobh and your ship. It really depends on what time your ship departs as to whether you can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
