great experience and great whisky. Neill was our tour guide and he was very interactive and entertainin. I would suggest doing it at least once to learn the history and see how Jameson became. They have great service and team members ready to help we didn't eat there yet I noticed a number of folks staying for additional beverages. read more

Land in Dublin after twenty-four hours of flying across both the pacific and Atlantic Ocean's, and the first place we visited - Jameson! Those massive green Jamison bottle chandeliers really welcome you through the door. Right call. The space hits different--bar anchoring the room, old distillery bones visible, the kind of atmosphere that makes you understand why you came. The standard tour delivers. Outstanding tastings that actually matter. The Black Barrel is the real deal--rich, approachable, worth bringing home. My wife found the Select, which you can only get here, and that matters. Our guide was sharp and funny, moved us through with purpose and personality. We added the special cask tasting. The barrel room is worth seeing, but the experience felt rushed. Different guide, less energy, in and out in ten minutes. Didn't justify the price. That's worth noting. We stayed at the bar anyway. Shared a charcuterie board that was genuinely well done. Picked up a few bottles. Left satisfied. Not flawless, but the core experience lands. The gift shop is stocked if you're looking to bring something back. Worth the visit. #Jamison #Dublin #WhiskeyTasting read more

What a great tour! Very well done. Our guide gave us a very informative and entertaining presentation. The tour itself is very modern and uses tech nicely. It's a tasting so you get to tray a few whiskeys. Very impressed with the overall tour. Ended up buying a couple of bottles of the limited Distillery Edition - can only get at this location. Building also had a bar if you want more drinks/cocktails. Outside is also a restaurant and a nice general Ireland gift shop. Highly recommend doing this tour if you're in the town of Dublin. read more

Whilst on a trip in Ireland, my friend and I stopped at the Jameson distillery. Truth be told we hadn't initially planned on it but our hotel gave a slight discount for the tours so we figured we'd go for it. It was really easy to find the entrance and where to start the tour. The staff was super welcoming and the tour was very informative! I went on another whiskey tour the day after Jameson and honestly the knowledge provided during the Jameson tour was helpful. At the end, my friend and I stopped by the bar for a drink (or two). I ended up trying Red Breast 10 yrs on the rocks and a whiskey sour! Both drinks were lovely. I was already a whiskey sour fan and the one here was sooooo good. I had a pretty sad whiskey sour the day before so it was like night and day. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at Jameson! I can't believe I almost didn't go considering how great of a time my friend and I had. Check it out! read more

Excellent tour! The presentation is very well done, blending both modern tech with a live person giving interesting information about the history and the science of Jameson. The quality of the visuals/video used was great - down to the details. The science part was sensory interactive - you watched some parts and listened, smelled some things, and ended with a tasting of three different whiskeys. It also included a choice of cocktail or neat at the Grog Bar. The people were very friendly and Antonia, the young woman who gave the presentation, was engaging and professional. I was impressed. If you're interested in Jameson and want to sample as well as learn a little bit of the history of Irish whiskey, this is definitely a worthy tour. read more

This was my favorite activity while in Dublin. We paid for a whisky tasting and were guided to a small room in which we learned the way the whiskey is made and the history of the distillery. Tried 4 whiskeys made by Jameson. The bar outside has the most delicious menu for cocktails. Be careful in the gift shop because you'll want to buy everything. We walked away with 3 bottles of Red Breast whiskey that cannot be bought in the US. Also purchased a beautiful warm jacket. read more

Absolutely wonderful. If you like Irish Whiskey, this place is a must and recommend the "private tasting." It's four distillery exclusive whiskeys in the back (in what used to be John Jameson's office). I did buy a couple of those tasty whiskeys. I can't remember the name of the guy who led the tour but I think it was Marc, he was wonderful. I would do it again, even with the same whiskeys. You can take tours or have flights, or even a beer. There's different types of tasting experiences (we did one at the Middleton distillery which was more of an introduction to Jameson whiskeys). If you're like me and want to get a bottle or two that you can get in the states and you like the Spots, Red Breast, Method and Madness or regular Jameson, this place is an absolute must visit. read more

When planning our Ireland trip, there was a short list of absolute must visits and Jameson Distillery in Dublin was top of that list! As much as Jameson is synonymous with Dublin, you would think they take up several blocks of downtown space...however, this distillery is tucked away on Bow Street in the Smithfield area of the city. It is a little hike on foot from city centre, but on a good day, it is a nice walk that is well worth the reward! The distillery is absolutely gorgeous. The outside if classic Irish infrastructure, then you walk inside and are transported into a modern, rustic, elevated and exciting space dedicated to all things Jameson! We purchased tickets for our guided tour and tasting ahead of time, and I highly recommend you doing the same. Our tour started with a quick introduction to things, then up the stairs we went to the Daily Grog where we got to choose our cocktail, and of course, I went with the Jameson Ginger! From there the tour started where we got to see the inner working of the process, including the ingredients along with a sensory station for tastes, smells, etc...The final tasting allowed us to sample a few different varieties of Jameson, including one that was only available on site. The tour was informative and fun. Our tour guide was fun, engaging, entertaining and an overall joy to wander around and connect with. Clearly a very passionate person about Jameson! After the tour, we wandered directly into the gift shop where we of course picked up a few pieces of swag. Immediately following that, we bellied up to the gorgeous bar downstairs for a final cocktail before heading back out. Overall, Jameson Distillery was one of the most memorable experiences of our time in Dublin, and I highly recommend it! read more

I'm not a whiskey drinker but this place really surprised me, starting with our welcome drink. I chose the Jameson Lemonade and couldn't taste the whiskey at all thankfully. The exhibits were interesting and I loved the design. The whiskey tasting itself wasn't too much and I did enjoy the Black Label. But what made the tour the most enjoyable was definitely Niall who cracked us up the entire time. read more

One can't go to Dublin and not stop at Jameson. This was a wonderful experience. Booked a regular tasting and a cask draw. Let me start with this... you get a drink while you wait for your tour/tasting to start! From now on, I want all my tours to start this way! Ha. Our guide was very knowledgeable and engaging, and walked us through the Irish Whisky making process while ultimately leading us to the tasting room. We then moved onto the cask draw, where we had a private experience talking about the barrel aging process in a very cool (literally cool) aging room and had the chance to taste a sample of whisky straight from the barrel. As if that tour wasn't enough, we then grabbed a drink at their bar before wrapping up and heading out for a much needed late lunch. Please please please don't drink and drive. The initial tasting alone is enough to put you over the limit. read more

Visited the Jameson Distillery! It was really nice! They have a restaurant that you can get some good food at across the way before your tour (that isn't affiliated). Once you enter, you will find a lobby and a cool bar! They have signature cocktails and you can of course get the whiskey poured straight up. Gift shop is also located in the central area, lots of fun items and bottles! I got a T-shirt and a Red Breast 21 ;) We did the Secret Whiskey tasting, not a full tour. I decided to do this because the normal tour did only included a tasting of some normal Jamesons. I mainly wanted to try some unique whiskeys! The tasting was pretty quick, about 45 min. But you did get to go into the "private office" and try 4 different Jameson branded premium whiskeys. You had an employee guide you through the tasting which was super cool. It was pretty private, since there were only about 8 people in the tour! If you are mainly concerned about the whiskey, I would recommend to do the Secret Tasting! We also hit the bar after the tour to hangout and try some of the signature cocktails! read more

The *secret* whisky tour was amazing. James... my only suggestion is that you need to bring your energy and enthusiasm up a notch, sheesh! The great thing about the secret tasting is that it is intimate and away from the plebs in the general public. Heathens! The amount of time dedicated to a flight of whiskys is just about right. James went through everything with perfect pace and detail, really great. You get to taste exclusive whiskys, available only at this location. Afterwards, I stuck around with my new alcoholic friends and sipped on drinks in the main bar area until it was time for the (add-on) cask pull. This had quite a number of guests, but Niell handled it like a boss. For the love of god, no flash photography!!! To be honest, I haven't traditionally been the biggest fan of Jameson, but this visit was entertaining from start to finish, and I realize now the rest of their product line is nothing to scoff at. Would recommend an elevated experience to get the most from this distillery. read more

Once upon a time, this Faerie Queen was happy to bring her Dad to the Jameson Distillery. He had a great time. We had a whiskey tasting and purchased some very special favorites (shout out to Midelton- he got to sign the book for his first time)! We figured since we drink the brand, we had ro make the pilgrimage. The end. read more

We had a very cool and intimate experience using the 'Secret Tasting' option where we were served four distillery-exclusive bottlings which were all outstanding. There were only 10 people in the tasting and we enjoyed the very classically appointed bar/office used as the venue. My favorite was the cask strength and the 18 year. Both were outstanding. We were also served a special cocktail after the tasting and then enjoyed some time at their bar. Definitely recommended. read more

I booked tickets online for the Bow Street Experience and Cask Draw (€41 - if you don't want to do the cask draw, the regular experience is €26) for a Saturday at 11:30. We did get there 10 minutes late but the first 10-15 minutes of the tour is getting your included drink at the bar. You can choose from Jameson on the rocks or a Jameson and ginger. From there, they take you into different rooms, where you get to smell the ingredients that go into distilling Jameson, and tell you about the history and the process. You'll also get to try a few different Jamesons. From first drink to finish, the whole thing lasts probably about an hour. When booking the cask draw, the website tells you to make sure you book for an hour after the Bow Street Experience so that you have enough time to finish the tour. We booked the 12:30 and it starts on time, and lasts for about half an hour. They take you into the barrel room, where they explain the whiskey, and then you get to taste cask strength single pot still whiskey, drawn straight from the cask. I don't remember what ABV they said it was but it's very high and not something that should be taken as a shot. In fact, it's so high that children are not allowed in the barrel room because of the fumes from the alcohol. Neither my husband nor I knew this at the time of booking, and we had our 8-month-old with. We just thought they bring you into a regular room, and let you taste the cask-strength whiskey, but you actually get to see them draw it, which was cool. Initially, we were just going to take turns doing the cask draw but my husband didn't end up doing it and they were able to refund us. So just something to keep in mind - if you're just looking to taste the whiskey or if you have kids with you, you might be better off going to the bar (though I'm not too sure if this exact one is served there). The experience is definitely for tourists but I would say it's one of those must-see tourist spots if you find yourself in Dublin. read more

We had a standard tour plus a cask draw during our visit, both of which were delightful. We were offered a mixed drink to start the tour, went through a series of interactive sessions, then enjoyed a tasting. From there, we were brought to a side room where they stored the casks then sampled whiskey directly from a cask after learning more about the process and the differences based on age time. We enjoyed both aspects and, even as a non-whiskey drinker, I enjoyed our time there! Plus, there are beautiful bars at the entrance with plenty of drink options for those who just want a spot to sit and enjoy. read more

All the drinks here are so amazing! They have perfected to ratios and flavors to complement and create the Jameson mix drinks. I got the Jameson cold brew, cola and orange and I was blown away! I never would have put that combo of flavors together but it all mingled so well! My friends also got drinks and I didn't catch the names of what they ordered but it was all so good. It really felt like you couldn't go wrong with any of the menu options! The inside had plenty of seating and the aesthetic was pretty. A lot of the decor was just displayed bottles of alcohol. Cool place, definitely worth a visit! read more

Jameson was my third distillery to visit on this trip after Bushmills* in Northern Ireland and Kilbeggan in the Republic. This one was definitely impressive and I enjoyed the experience. A number of whiskeys were consumed including the "welcome" drink for the tour, three tastings as part of the tour and then I purchased a final drink in JJ's Bar at the end. My friend described Jameson's tour in Dublin** as Disneyland and yes, it feels quite engineered and scripted. Perhaps because this is such a huge tourist draw, they have a series of rooms with videos and lighting and multimedia screens with some interactive touches and smells that crank people through swiftly. It's fun and it's enjoyable but it absolutely feels "produced." I would still highly recommend it. Lots of history, lots of displays, lots of information about the largest producer of whiskey in Ireland. Jameson outsells their competition by ten-to-one. They have an extensive gift shop and I did check prices. They're the same as the prices in the duty free at the airport though there are a few unique whiskeys that are only here. So if you're looking to avoid carrying your whiskey throughout the rest of your trip, that's an option. [Round number review 23000*** overall - review 1978 of 2024 - 159 in Republic of Ireland] * Bushmills was my favorite. Sorry! ** Eight years ago, my 6900th review was the Guinness Storehouse.

This was a fun place to check out. My friends and I did the distillery tour and were able to walk right up and book the next time available slot which was about 30 minutes later. If you are staying at the Generator hostel next door, let them know and they will give you a discount on your ticket. The tour lasted about 25-30 minutes and the tasting was at the end. I will say.. I am not a whiskey fan at all so this was tough for me to get through but I'm sure if you like whiskey then this is absolutely perfect for you. I really just came for the experience + to have Jameson in Ireland and I still found it enjoyable.

My friend and I got tickets for the Jameson Distillery tour around 3pm on a Sunday. Right off the bat, you kick the tour off with a complimentary drink. I know that there were 3 choices, but I could only recall whiskey neat (or on the rocks) and a cocktail of Jameson, ginger, and lime. No pressure to consume the drink before the tour starts; you can sip it along the way. The tour was awesome. Our guide, Kieran, was funny and passionate. I loved how interactive and high-tech the exhibits were. Very cool, seamless projections told the story of Jameson's history, how the whiskey is distilled, etc. The tasting room was at the end of the tour where we got to try 3 samples including the original, Distillery edition (my personal favorite), and Black Barrel. After the tour, my friend and I enjoyed a few more drinks at the bar. It was a lively spot with friendly bartenders, and a great way for us to mingle with other tour goers. read more

Emer was an incredible tour guide! It was only her second week and she did an amazing job. This was one of our favorite things in Dublin that we did.

Ok, I loved this! I've had a bit of Jameson in my time! ( I won't say just how often I enjoy a nice neat Jameson, people judge. ha.) When I walked in I swear I heard angels singing. It is beautiful. You feel the history and the love that goes into this brand. We had not booked ahead of time but had no problem getting into the next available tour, only 10 minutes wait. Before the tour officially starts you go upstairs to a bar and can choose from 1 of 3 Jameson drinks. I chose the Jameson and ginger thinking it would last me a bit longer ... apparently I was pretty thirsty and the drink was tasty. Daniel then invited us all in to the first room to kick of the official tour. He was funny and engaging. Top notch tour guide! We went through the history in one room and then the process of making the whiskey in the next room. Both rooms have really cool audio-visual effects. The third room is the tasting room. We each enjoyed three tastings. Daniel was fantastic at explaining the differences and the processes that make those differences. Back downstairs there is a really attractive and busy bar. read more

I'm a huge fan of Jameson, so had to come by for a tour while in town. The entire place was decked to the 9s in Jameson Christmas bottles and was so warm and inviting. We started the tour with the Bow Street Experience with Eva, who was welcoming and hilarious. Her charm carried throughout the tour. We loved being able to try three different types and the multi-sense explanation of how they distill their whiskey! It was super immersive, and the explanations were visual and super well done. We also did the Cask Draw experience with Alex who was filling in for someone but was super knowledgeable and funny as well. Lastly, I went crazy at the gift shop and bought the distillery edition bottle of Jameson. Val was super helpful and was able to add a name to the label on the bottle for €5 more which is a perfect Christmas present for my dad. Definitely a highlight of my trip! read more
