Glendalough

Wicklow, County Wicklow, Ireland · 2011'den beri

Glendalough Distillery draws its name and spirit from one of Ireland's most sacred valleys — the 'valley of the two lakes' in County Wicklow, where Saint Kevin established a monastic settlement in the sixth century. Founded in 2011 by a group of five friends with a shared passion for reviving Ireland's ancient distilling heritage, Glendalough has grown into one of the most distinctive voices in the modern Irish whiskey renaissance. The distillery produces single malt and pot still expressions that are matured in a variety of casks, resulting in approachable yet layered whiskies defined by notes of orchard fruits, toasted oak, gentle spice, and a characteristic Irish softness. Beyond whiskey, Glendalough is celebrated for its seasonal gin expressions, crafted with wild foraged botanicals gathered from the Wicklow countryside — a practice that ties the brand intimately to its landscape. The combination of traditional methods and an adventurous spirit makes Glendalough a compelling chapter in the story of contemporary Irish distilling.
