Micil Distillery & Belfast Whiskey Week
Micil traces its poitín heritage back to 1848 and ancestor Micil Mac Chearra, six generations of the Ó Griallais family keeping the flame alive through tradition, through the Gaeltacht, through times when keeping it alive was far from straightforward. That seanchas is carried into every bottle of whiskey and poitín they produce in Galway today.

An exclusive tasting at the 2025 EXPO brought Connemara's craft to Belfast Whiskey Week in proper form. A dram with a story worth hearing. Agus is maith an rud é. Come with questions. Leave with a new favourite.
