Celebrating start of whiskey distillation in south Longford
Lough Ree Distillery is hosting a special event to celebrate the start of Irish whiskey distillation in Lanesboro, and Irish whiskey’s links to the farming and food industry.
The event will take place in Lough Ree Distillery on Saturday, October 1, kicking off at 2.00pm, and will involve a tour and a tasting of the distillery’s carefully sourced and curated whiskeys.
Irish whiskey is the world’s fastest-growing whiskey – its success is a product of the Irish countryside and climate, and Lough Ree Distillery is proud to be part of this growing industry as it begins distilling Irish whiskey.
Saturday's event is an opportunity to invite the local community to visit Ireland’s newest and smallest distillery, and to raise a glass to the producers who have helped it to get to where it is today.
As worldwide sales continue to grow, the Irish whiskey industry is buying more grain from Ireland’s farmers and investing more in local communities.
Further information on and tickets for the ‘Visit Ireland's Smallest Whiskey Distillery - Tour and Tasting’ event at Lough Ree Distillery, on October 1, 2.00-3.30pm can be found on Eventbrite.
