About Clonakilty Distillery Ltd

Clonakilty Distillery founders, the Scully family, have farmed their coastal land for eight successive generations. A commitment to both heritage and innovation has led to the revival of ancient malting barley varieties. Using these barley varities the Scully family create a range of craft whiskies and gin that honors this unique inheritance to manufacture and supply them to the domestic and international markets. Clonakilty Distillery's whiskies and gin's have no added sugar, fat or salt and are gluten free. Injecting vibrant new life into the heart of the town, the Distillery is set to become a landmark building on the Wild Atlantic Way route to Clonakilty as they open up a &quot;best in class&quot; Distillery Visitor Experience in the January of 2018<strong> </strong> Origin Green approval through 31 May 2026.
