Taste Your Way Through the Largest Collection of Premium Whiskies in Ireland at This Restored Manor

"An opulent 104-room country manor that underwent an 18-month, €70 million-plus restoration in 2017, this luxury hotel sits about a three-hour drive west of the capital and roughly 20 minutes north of Limerick. It is regularly ranked among the world’s best hotels for impeccable service, beautifully manicured gardens, and award-winning dining—its signature restaurant earned a Michelin star in 2019. The property is also famed for a premier whisky program: a collection of 160 rare bottles including decades-old vintages from Pappy Van Winkle, Midleton, and Macallan; three expert-led guided tastings; and a bespoke 25-year whiskey developed in partnership with Midleton, aged in virgin American oak with only 156 bottles released. The hotel’s bars and cocktail offerings are highly regarded, complementing the overall luxe hospitality experience." - Sean Flynn
