Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events Kerry

The story of Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events Kerry begins during the Tralee Food Festival in 2023. In conjunction with Baily’s Corner, we held our first Kerry whiskey tasting on Friday night and Sunday evening. Turned out: We loved what we were doing and the idea for our humble company was born. While we have established and expanded our core range of amazing tasting products, we still love doing special tasting events in Kerry. See the below list of upcoming and past events and follow our social media channels on Instagram and Facebook to stay up-to-date with new events.

Kerry Whiskey Experience at Baily’s Corner

The Tralee Food Festival 2023 was the time, it all really started for us here at Kingdom Whiskey Tasting Events Kerry. On the Friday night we held our first of many whiskey tasting events in Kerry. Because it became a success, we did a second tasting on the Sunday evening. Which became an even bigger success. Both days, we worked closely with the great guys at Baily’s Corner to treat our guests to the best whiskeys, the Kingdom of Kerry has to offer. This was the birth of the Kerry Whiskey Experience, our signature tasting.
