Distillery Information
Glendalough Distillery was founded in 2011 by friends Barry Gallagher, Brian Fagan, Gary McLoughlin and Kevin Keenan with the intent to emphasise traditional methods of Irish distillation in the belief that the industry and market were ready for a return of independent Irish whiskey. For brand inspiration, the friends looked towards the story of Glendalough, a settlement founded by the legendary St. Kevin. Despite supposedly being of noble birth, St. Kevin lived as a hermit, and was said to be at such one with nature that a blackbird laid her eggs on him.
