Join me for My Achill Island Distillery Chat with Seán & Michael McKay.

I recently visited this picturesque island distillery in beautiful county Mayo, just off the west coast of Ireland, by bridge.

Seán and Michael McKay are brothers. They are carrying on the legacy of their father who founded the distillery originally and they are genuinely doing their father's legacy a massive justice. They have an amazing operation at Achill Island Distillery.

2 x 5000ltr pot stills, fed by 7 fermenters, keep this a 7 day operating distillery.

They have vast warehouses with 5yr old whiskey stock, that tastes amazing.

This is a little gem of a distillery that will be a major part of the Irish whiskey landscape going forward. I was very impressed.......
