Jameson Distillery Whiskey Cocktail-Making Class
About This Experience
Step behind the bar at Jameson Distillery Bow St. in Dublin's Smithfield for a hands-on whiskey cocktail-making class led by a skilled Jameson bartender. This is a make-it-yourself masterclass, not a spectator session: you'll be handed professional bar tools and guided step by step as you shake, stir, and sip your way through three Jameson cocktails from start to finish.
Under expert guidance you'll build a classic Whiskey Sour, a smooth Old Fashioned, and the bold Jameson Punch, learning the techniques behind each one and drinking your own creations along the way. As you mix, your host adds a taste of Jameson's rich whiskey history, giving the session extra flavor and context beyond the drinks in your glass.
Lively, social, and easy-going, the class runs around an hour and makes a natural start to a night out in Dublin. You'll enjoy your cocktails at a reserved table in JJ's bar, swap conversation with fellow classmates, and head home with a stylish, in-depth cocktail book so you can keep practicing your new mixology skills long after the session ends.

It was so much fun! This cocktail-making experience is a must during a visit to Dublin. We learned something, laughed a lot, and then all together, a colorful mix of strangers, enjoyed the drinks while deep in conversation.

This was definitely a highlight of my Dublin trip. The value for money was incredible. I'm not usually a whiskey drinker, but I thoroughly enjoyed all of the cocktails. Our guide, Ally, was fantastic, super knowledgeable, full of energy, and kept everyone laughing throughout the experience. I can't recommend this highly enough.
