Blend and bottle your own whiskey with their in house experts and enjoy seasonal local produce which is paired beautifully with Pearse Irish Whiskey. Pearse Whiskey is a multi-award-winning whiskey at the World Whiskies Awards for the last two consecutive years. With great knowledge and insight into the industry, Dr. Lyons began distilling in Ireland in 2012 to laydown spirit for the opening of Pearse Lyons Distillery. The stills, that now reside on the alter, were working away behind closed doors while Deirdre Lyons meticulously restored the former 18th Century St James Church. The Pearse Lyons Distillery is one of three distilleries owned and operated by the Lyons family. The first, Town Branch Distillery is in the lively neighbourhood of Lexington, Kentucky. Its most recent, Duelling Barrels, is in the Appalachian Mountains in Pikeville, Kentucky. The distillery operations are overseen by Dr. Mark Lyons, the seventh generation of Lyons family to be involved in the whiskey industry. The late Dr. Pearse Lyons, was honoured with a 2020 Chairman’s Award by Drinks Ireland Irish Whiskey Association. He is the first to receive recognition in Ireland and the United States for his outstanding contribution to both the Irish Whiskey and Kentucky bourbon industries.
