The Flame in Dublin

25/01/2025: We had a great time on the Jameson Whiskey tour in Smithfield today. Our tour guide was brilliant—his passion for Irish heritage, whiskey and storytelling made the experience unforgettable. He was theatrical in the best possible way, bringing the history of Jameson and the craft of whiskey making to life with humour, energy and authenticity. What made the experience extra special was his gratitude for our visit—he took the time to thank the entire group for showing an interest in Irish heritage, which felt so genuine and heartfelt. As locals, we were thrilled to be there, and his excitement about having us in the group actually made me a bit emotional—silly, I know. We also loved the personal touches he shared, like the meaning behind his tattoos and piercings, which made him incredibly relatable and easy to connect with. On top of that, he even taught us some clever new whiskey-drinking tricks we’ll definitely remember - dip your whole nose into the glass, none of that sniffing. The whole tour was fantastic from start to finish, and we’d highly recommend it to locals and visitors alike. The whiskey cocktail at the end was delicious, and we stuck around to try a few more—the Blackcurrant & Apple Smash was superb. A big thank you to the Jameson team for such a memorable experience. Sláinte!
