Discover Lough Ree Distillery at Belfast Whiskey Week 2026

Family-owned on the River Shannon, carrying the uisce beatha traditions of the Irish midlands. Craft Irish whiskey and poitín rooted in something old, with care that's evident in every glass.
Family-owned and sitting where the River Shannon opens into Lough Ree, this is a distillery that carries the uisce beatha traditions of the Irish midlands in everything it produces. Their craft Irish whiskey and poitín are rooted in something old, and the care that goes into how they work is evident in the glass every single time.

Showcase sessions and a strong presence at Expo have brought the midlands revival to Belfast Whiskey Week with real purpose. Ireland's heartland is producing something worth paying attention to, and the festival is the place to do it.
