Your Irish Whiskey Trip Concierge

5 Hours

Overview

Our goal is to introduce as many people as possible to the incredible places, wonderful people and amazing pours of Irish whiskey.

We are regularly asked for help with trip planning and for advice on various aspects of a visit to Ireland or around our magnificent island. We have a number of ways we can help you get advice, suggestions and answers to your questions to make your trip as memorable as possible:

For more personalized, one-on-one advice, we offer our Whiskey Concierge Service.

WHAT IS THE WHISKEY CONCIERGE SERVICE?

Our Whiskey Concierge Service is designed to provide you expert advice and recommendations to ensure your journey is unforgettable, all while allowing you the flexibility to book your own itinerary as needed. Imagine having access to your very own whiskey insider who can advise, help and recommend prior to and during your trip.

How much does this service cost?

€500 for 5 hours with our team. You can bring the whole family on a zoom call with us or we can schedule a conference call with everyone in your group so that everyone gets their questions answered.

This service is only available in blocks of 5 hours at a time. You’re free to spread those hours over a year if you like. For quick answers to individual questions, we recommend our Irish Whiskey Fans of America Facebook group or weekly Irish whiskey livestream, The Shebeen, where we’ll answer each question.

Why do you charge for this service?

We get many requests a day for advice and suggestions on planning trips. As a small team, we have to prioritise the requests of our paying and booked guests in order to maintain the quality of our service and to ensure memorable experiences are had by all. It’s a tough balance for a small team but by providing both free and paid ways to access us and our advice, we hope we’re striking a fair balance.
