The Blackwater Distillery Experience
Tour Overview
Located within a refurbished 1950’s hardware store in Ballyduff village, West Waterford on the banks of the Blackwater River (15 mins from Lismore Castle, 35 minutes from Midleton), our new distillery is renowned nationally and internationally for its innovative approach to creating a diverse range of award-winning contemporary Irish spirits.
Our guided tour enables guests to explore our working distillery and discover the ancient art of Irish whisky and gin production. Witness the skill and passion that goes into each of our spirits. Experience first-hand the sound, smell and feel of a fully operational distillery and enjoy a tutored tasting at our gallery bar.
Receive a Blackwater No.5 Gin & tonic to take home (made from real botanicals!).
Whether you are interested in whisky, gin or even cocktail making, there is something for everyone on our range of tours.
