Do not miss this experience as it will enhance your visit, or your cancelled visit to Skellig Michael. - What an enriching experience to witness the successful establishment of a business by local entrepreneurs.
The guide was wow and she explained, with passion, the distillation process and how the flavour was achieved by the use of local flowers and herbs.
As for the gin, I have never tasted such quality - I would suggest that you give it a try yourself.

A Great Little Distillery With A Personal Touch - We stumbled up this distillery on a Ring of Kerry trip. The staff were very friendly and I love the story of how the place got it's name. This is a great small business that is up and coming and the friendly staff were great to be around throughout the tour. They go the extra mile to make sure you have an enjoyable time. Great whiskey and great gin as well. Stop in - you won't be disappointed.

You shouldn't drive by here - It wasn't our first visit to a distillery, but it was the most enjoyable yet. The atmosphere is very familiar and the explanations about gin and whiskey production are very easy to understand. The history of Irish whiskey and gin was also vividly explained.

The perfect rainy day activity - We had such an enjoyable tour in Skellig Six18 today. It was amazing to see where the whiskey and gin is made and the tasting at the end was the perfect way to finish up the tour. Our guide, Trish, was warm and so knowledgeable about the whiskey. She is the perfect ambassador for your brand. We will keep an eye out for Skellig Six18 whiskey going forward!!
