Whiskey Network is the definitive voice for those who love the whiskey lifestyle. Our content is made for enthusiasts but those who share a mutual love for everything we cover.
Our story is a bit unconventional, because we never intended on making a whiskey brand. Our team was developing other people’s spirits before Doc Swinson’s was born.
Doc Swinson’s evolved from a pet project. Our collection started in 2017 with 10 casks, a small warehouse, and a love for blending and finishing.
Since then we’ve continued to grow and grow and grow. We discovered that the more we put into Docs, the more it gave out. It's the labor of love and exploration of flavors that make Docs whiskey so unique.
The TÚATH (tu – ah) – from the old Irish for family or nation, is a conical shaped nosing and tasting glass for whiskey that functions superbly by concentrating & capturing all the aromas and flavours that make Irish Whiskey unique. The generosity of Irish spirit is reflected in the enhanced chamber capacity delivering a more generous drinking experience.

Glendalough, or the Glen of two Lakes, is one of the most beautiful, and visited valleys in Ireland. Just south of Dublin, the Wicklow Mountains are renowned for their natural, scenic beauty. The area known as “the garden of Ireland” - a name it lives up to with ease. Glendalough is also renowned for its 6th century monastic settlement founded by St Kevin, a legendary monk and the man on our bottle. Monasteries like Glendalough were the birthplace of distilled drinks.
St Kevin's legacy still stands in stone by the lower lake. What remains of the monastic settlement, parts of it 14 centuries old, are remarkably intact, and truly awe-inspiring to walk amongst. People have been drawn here for thousands of years. The spectacular scenery and ancient ruins are soul-stirring and inspirational. And their effect never fades no matter how many times you go back.

Here at Teeling Whiskey, we are renowned for our vision of doing things differently. Our whiskeys embody this unconventional spirit, with innovation at the core of everything we do. For us, it’s what’s inside the bottle that counts – we let the liquid do the talking, and our liquid has plenty to say.
The delicate base of Irish whiskey is the perfect canvas upon which to layer flavour and character. Varying the time, style and number of barrels used during the maturation process adds to the subtlety and complexity of flavour we pride ourselves on. Now that we have our own Dublin distilled spirit coming of age, our ingenuity is the only limitation to the unique styles and expressions we can craft in the future.
After putting all this care and attention to what goes into our whiskey, we don’t like to take anything out. We don’t chill filter our whiskey prior to bottling, letting us leave as much of the body, character and richness in the bottle as possible. We bring our whiskey from cask strength to our signature ABV of 46%, allowing us to bottle with no chill filtration, maintaining the true natural character of all Teeling Whiskeys.
The Walsh Whiskey WAY
Walsh Whiskey is a family business dedicated to the revival of Irish whiskey as one of the world’s most appreciated spirits. We create contemporary innovations and expressions for the pleasure of palates of a new era, celebrating the timeworn recipes from Ireland’s golden era of whiskey distilling.
Located at the waterfront, in the heart of Clonakilty town, the three gleaming copper pot stills are an inspiring sight to behold. It is here that the Scully’s distill their award-winning new make, alongside their visitor experience and shop. This is where the magic starts, and is the home of Clonakilty whiskey.
While The Busker honors its Irish heritage, it encourages you to go beyond the limitations and lines of history and write a new story. This new narrative begins with you and it begins with Busk It. Embracing the language of today’s contemporary America, The Busker is perfect for wanderers, for those who are flavor-curious, eager for inspiration and a quality Irish whiskey like no other. The Busker sides with innovation way beyond its production process; it reimagines a new generation of American whisk(e)y drinkers.
The Dingle Whiskey Distillery was crafted and conceived by three independent spirits: Oliver Hughes; Liam LaHart and Peter Mosley. Oliver, Liam and Peter are the people behind Porterhouse Brewing Company; one of the pioneers of craft brewing in Ireland in 1996. Craft beer in Ireland in the mid-1990s was not appealing to the masses. The idea was radical to some, simply mad to the rest. The refined pallets of the then youthful Oliver, Liam and Peter had seen a love for beer. As their palates became more and more experienced to the taste of Earth’s natural ingredients, the attention turned to whiskey.
This gave the three guys another idea; an artisan distillery. Could it work? Distillation in Ireland was controlled by three major brands. How would a small, independent distillery fit into the mix? In 1996, Oliver and Liam had the stomach to take on the challenge of the big boys; to do something different. Would they have the desire to go again? You bet they did!
The Dingle Whiskey Distillery came into being in the cold winter of 2012. Ireland was beginning to come out of the greatest recession in many people’s memory. However unbeknownst to many, the most significant event in the Irish whiskey industry in decades was happening in a tin shed in the town of Dingle, Co. Kerry. Witnessed by few, the first Dingle Whiskey Casks were filled on the 18th December 2012. Three years and a day later on the 19th December 2015, one cask, Cask No. 2 was released. Our whiskey was born. Our distillery was ready.
We have always had quality over quantity at the forefront of our thoughts. We never had any interest in distilling enormous quantities of bland whiskey. We understand and respect the concept, it just wasn’t for us! We aren’t passionate about bland spirt. We are hugely passionate about flavoursome, well-crafted spirit.
To achieve the flavours we want to achieve in our whiskey, we use three distinctive, hand-crafted copper pot stills to create what we believe is the ultimate Irish whiskey. Their distinctive design, incorporating a boil ball, encourages reflux and has much to do with the remarkable smoothness and purity of our spirit. We use a small, swan neck pot still to achieve our desired effect on our award-winning Gin and Vodka.
Once again, we appear to be at the forefront of a minor revolution in that the Dingle Whiskey Distillery is the first of what appears to be – and we certainly hope will be – artisan distilleries throughout the island of Ireland. The future of the Irish Whiskey industry looks bright and we are proud to have been the first to break the mould. Long may it continue!
The Dingle Whiskey Distillery is an independent family-owned business, thanks, in part, to our Founding Fathers programme. When the Dingle Whiskey Distillery was founded, 500 casks were made available to whiskey lovers, investors and connoisseurs. Those who chose to invest in a cask are known as Founding Fathers of the Dingle Whiskey Distillery. Each of these casks is individual, painted with the Founding Father’s name, fill date and cask number. Founding Fathers had the option of maturing their whiskey in whatever wood – port, sherry, madeira or bourbon, that they wished. Now that the spirit has come of age, each investor has the option to either bottle their whiskey, continue to allow it to mature for as long as they wish, or to sell their cask back to the distillery. Each cask will be aged in Dingle as required and bottled only when its owner decides to do so. Come bottling time, whenever that may be, every bottle is numbered and given the name of its owner. If a Founding Father decides to bottle their whiskey, it is bottled into a Dingle Whiskey bottle with a one-off Dingle Founding Fathers label. What our Founding Fathers choose to do with their whiskey once it is bottled and labelled entirely up to them. Our Cask Strength release volume of 500 bottles per batch is a subtle nod to our 500 Founding Fathers.
Our mission is to unleash the quality of coffees from the farm to your cup and to reveal the potential of the people working with coffee throughout the whole coffee chain: farming, roasting and brewing.
Together with the farmers, we control and preserve the coffee’s quality from inception to indulgence, from farm to cup. We work with consumers and with coffee experts in the San Francisco Bay Area to provide feedback to the growers to help improve the farming processes, and we are excited to unleash our newest coffees with each year’s harvest.
The inspiration to connect spirits producers, distillers, brand advocates and educators with a discerning public through one platform is based on the idea that the existing events market lacks a “one stop shopping” experience. With the launch of Barrel Strength Talent, spirits enthusiasts of all levels can now book top industry talent for corporate and private events in one place.
Founder Lia Niskanen’s undying respect and admiration for the spirits professionals she has met on her journey in the industry ultimately led her to advocate for these highly skilled but often “behind the scenes” experts. Drawing from a deep well of relationships formed over the course of a decade in the field, Niskanen has an innate sensibility for pairing the right talent with a client’s needs. With a goal towards curating the highest possible quality of care for her team and for the customer experience from start to finish, Barrel Strength Talent is positioned to become a leader in the advocacy and promotion of spirits education with a global outreach.
Roe & Co is a new premium Blended Irish Whiskey, named in honour of George Roe, a true pioneer of Irish Whiskey. Refined, elegant, and with remarkable depth, a masterful blend of rich malt whiskey and the smoothest of grain whiskey aged in bourbon casks.
Natterjack Irish whiskey was born of a quest for adventure, to leave the beaten track and create a new one for ourselves. As a group of pioneering spirits, driven by a passion to make whiskey, we left all we knew behind to create something different, to build something. Independent of industry shackles and corporate ownership has been liberating, but it has not been easy getting here. Building something great takes mettle, sweat and an ounce of terror… You’ll taste the true authenticity of adventure and fear in our whiskey. Live Deliberately is our mantra, and that is what we set out to do every day. We set out to make new whiskey traditions for a generation that is challenging the status quo. We stand on the shoulders of giants to create something interesting, adventurous and new. Natterjack is the result of our adventure - an adventure that we are still on, and like any good adventure, it is full of twists and turns and has a hero you can believe in at its core - the Natterjack toad.
Introducing Natterjack Toad. It’s an intriguing character. Its distinctive yellow stripe sets it apart from other toads. While all around it are hopping, it walks. It chooses its own course.
With a call that can be heard from two kilometres away, you will hear it before you see it, it’s not shy. The only toad native to Ireland, a tendency to roam and love of a story shared are buried deep in its DNA. Like the Irish, it travels well, and is shaped by the places it goes and people it meets along the way.
What better namesake for our whiskey. Join it on the journey, everyone is welcome. You never know where you may end up.
