On a recent visit to Cork, Stuart made a trip to visit the Midleton Distillery, which is about a 20 minute drive from Cork City and it is located in the quaint town of Midleton. The original Old Distillery was in production for 150 years and was founded in the early 19th Century by the Murphy Brothers, before a new adjacent distillery complex was built in 1975. The new complex is Irelands largest Whiskey Distillery and produces some 24 million bottles of whiskey each year. It is the home to seven iconic brands – Jameson, Redbreast, Powers, Midleton Very Rare, The Spot Whiskeys, Method and Madness and Knappogue Castle. A visit here begins with an informative audio-visual presentation before being guided through the production of Irish Whiskey and the old workings of the distillery. These old workings include the World's largest Pot Still, a 150 year old Water wheel which would have generated electricity for the site and stops at the original Malting Houses, Corn Stores and Still Houses. Discover the differences between Single Pot Still Distillation and Continuous Distillation and finish with a whiskey tasting in one of the original storage warehouses. It was a very interesting tour from start to finish, I would highly recommend a visit on your next visit to Cork. #Conferences #Events #Incentives
