About Us

 OUR STORY

Baoilleach Distillery is the smallest distillery in Donegal and one of the smallest distillery's on the Island of Ireland. Our distillery is situated in an old cottage on a hillside overlooking Mulroy Bay and the Wild Atlantic, outside the picturesque village of Carrigart in Co. Donegal. 

We are proud to produce quality craft spirits which capture the character of Donegal and its rich distilling heritage.

We are a manual, small batch distillery using direct fire and a small copper stills. The distillery is run solo by myself the head distiller/Founder and we produce 50-70 casks of Irish Whiskey per year. We specialise in mash bills with Malt Barley, Green Barley, Oats, Rye, Maize, Peated Grains. We also grow grains around the distillery and produce a yearly harvest Irish Whiskey called - Grán na hÁite - Grains of the Place, which showcase's the flavour of the land and the yearly flavour of the weather. 

 

My distilling journey began with a small pot still and my interest has grown into a passion for producing spirits for others to now enjoy. I love experimenting and developing unique Irish spirits in small batches using traditional techniques.

Our mission is Craft & Quality, Small Pot - Big Flavours.
