But the spirit is not produced there. Certain not anything in the current release. Maybe their barrel storehouse is there, as it can't be in Dublin city.

I assume he'll be doing the Hogmanay one on the 31st, should be good craic. Feels like being in the pub with him. If he's not big into whiskey, then some of the tastings which are for specific distilleries with L Mulligans could be a bit dry \ technical. The L Mulligans samples are usually 6 x 17.5 ml, they are a bit small but then it means you sample a bigger variety. Celtic Whiskey Shop I think are 4 x 30ml.
