Ahascragh Distillers Ltd. Ahascragh Distillers is an Irish family business, established in 2018 by husband-and-wife team Gareth and Michelle McAllister from Dublin, Ireland, with the purpose of producing authentically crafted Irish spirits to the highest quality of tasting experience with unique and innovative flavours. Their mission is to help family and friends celebrate meaningful moments and occasions, with innovative and sustainable premium Irish spirits. Having lived and worked in countries across Europe, the US and Asia, they returned to Ireland with the intention of turning their passion for craft Irish spirits into a successful family business. They set their sights on opening a whiskey and gin distillery in the West of Ireland. When they visited the old mill in Ahascragh, County Galway, they fell in love with its story: the beautiful stonework, the history of the buildings and the character of countryside. Ahascragh Distillery The project saw the renovation of the old Ahascragh Mill and the construction of a world class whiskey and gin experience, and hospitality destination, positioning Ahascragh on the tourism map of the Wild Atlantic Way, the Hidden Heartlands and the Irish Whiskey Trail. Ahascragh mill dates back to the early 1800s and up until the 1950s processed grain into flour. Located in the heart of the small East Galway village, the mill complex remained derelict for 70 years. The McAllisters have given the building a new lease of life. Ahascragh Distillery is Ireland’s first eco-distillery, exclusively powered by renewable energy. Fully guided tours of the state-of-the-art distillery include a journey through the history of the old mill and an exploration of whiskey and gin production. Visitors will be immersed in the art of distillation, where age old tradition, meets modern innovation, finishing with a tasting of the company’s award-winning sourced expressions, Clan Colla Irish Whiskey, UAIS Irish Whiskey and on-site distilled Xin Gin. Ahascragh Distillery is an authentic destination for whiskey and gin enthusiasts and anyone interested in history, tradition and craftmanship.
