Celtic Whiskey Fest is back! After the incredible success of our online-only festival last year we’ve brought it back - but with a bit of change.
This year we’ve decided to make the most of the lack of Covid and split our events into three areas! The first is our Dublin based tasting that will be happening throughout November with our incredible whiskey specialists and some inspiring guests! For the second element, we will be offering unique tasting packs so anyone who is unable to join us in person can still be part of the fun. And the third and final element is the 2 exclusive tasting dinners in The Celtic Whiskey Bar & Larder we will be hosting.
Now on to some of our incredible 2022 programme
