Dingle Single Malt Irish Whiskey

The Dingle Whiskey Distillery was crafted and conceived by three independent spirits: Oliver Hughes; Liam LaHart and Peter Mosley. Oliver, Liam, and Peter are the people behind Porterhouse Brewing Company; one of the pioneers of craft brewing in Ireland in 1996. As time went on, they started thinking about whiskey. At this time in Ireland, there were only three major distilleries producing all of Irish Whiskey, there was no “small-guy” or craft distilling movement.

The Dingle Whiskey Distillery came into being in the cold winter of 2012. Ireland was beginning to come out of the greatest recession in many people’s memory. However unbeknownst to many, the most significant event in the Irish whiskey industry in decades was happening in a tin shed in the town of Dingle, Co. Kerry. To this day the distillery is still privately owned. Their distiller is Graham Coull, who moved over from Glen Moray in Speyside, Scotland to take the helm of the distillery.
