Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. The attention to detail in the distillery itself is incredible – from the gleaming copper pot stills to the warm, inviting atmosphere throughout.
The tasting session was a real highlight. Each spirit had its own unique character, and it was clear that so much care and pride goes into making them. I also loved the café – a cosy spot to relax afterwards with delicious food and coffee.
Whether you’re a gin lover, a whiskey fan, or just someone looking for a great day out, The Shed Distillery is well worth a visit. I’ll definitely be recommending it to friends and family.

The staff are super friendly and welcoming, and the café and gift shop are well worth a browse (and a bite to eat). Left with a bottle or two
If you’re in Leitrim, definitely pop in – you won’t regret it!
