The Shed Distillery

Reviewed By G2420BEkennethf - Killenard, Ireland

Absolutely put this on your plan if you choose to visit Leitrim. Anne was our guide and she and all her colleagues we met were welcoming, knowledgeable and professional. We had a lovely tour, then a couple of drinks in the honey badger bar onsite. You get the 1st free with admission to the tour. You can see the €3M spent and the quality in how they put the experience together and the staff they hired are genuinely a pleasure to meet. Drumshambo itself is a picturesque small town and a lovely bike ride down the blueway from Leitrim village, another must see gem. So whether you’re hopping over from Carrick-on-Shannon or coming from one of these connected villages, take the tour in the Shed Distillery and enjoy a gin, a whisky or a vodka!
