With guidance from our team, you'll sample the available blend components (single grain, single malt and single pot still), learning their characteristics and how they interact with each other.
Make the blend
When you decide on the composition for your Custom Blend, it's time to make it. Using the controls on our blending unit, you can mix any number of the three components, in any proportion you wish, until you reach the 70cl mark on the scale.
Finish the bottle
Once the blend is ready, you'll pour it into a 70cl bottle, which will then be corked and sealed to finish. The final touch will be to fill a personalised label, bearing the blend composition and your signature as the blender – now, your bottle is ready!
Got questions?
The price of €85 covers the entire blending experience and the 70cl bottle of your Custom Blend made during the blending session.
All three available components – single grain, single malt and single pot still – are sourced from Great Northern Distillery (Co. Louth) at 46% ABV.
Each of them brings different flavours and qualities to the mix, so be sure to try them all during the initial stage of the experience – whether you use all three, or decide to skip any in your final blend, it's entirely up to you!
No, the experience operates on a walk-in basis, and there's no need to book your visit in advance. If the unit is in use with another customer when you arrive, you may need to wait a few minutes for the previous blend to finish.
Although only one blend can be made in the unit at a time, if you're part of a group, we can certainly do the educational part of the experience (where we talk about the blend components and sample them) with more than one person, and then proceed to making the individual blends one by one.
Please note that, due to limited space on the premises, we may not be able to accommodate groups of more than 8–10 people. If your group is about this size or bigger, please feel free to contact us ahead of time and we'll be happy to come up with a solution.
Absolutely! We offer dedicated gift vouchers for our blending experience that can be redeemed at a later date. You can get them in our store, or order them online from this page.
We hope you'll enjoy your visit! Our specialist team will be happy to guide you through each step of the blending process – your very own Custom Blend is waiting to become reality!
