Coffee, Whiskey & Kilkenny Stories
Step inside one of Ireland’s oldest inns and learn how to craft the perfect Irish Coffee in a truly unique setting. Hosted at Kyteler’s Inn, this hands-on workshop blends history, storytelling, and a touch of magic.
Pull up a stool in this 700-year-old medieval pub and discover the secrets behind Ireland’s most famous drink – from selecting the right ingredients to mastering the art of floating the cream. Along the way, you’ll hear tales of Kilkenny’s whiskey heritage and the fascinating, and sometimes dark, history of the Inn itself. As you sip your creation, you’ll be introduced to the story of Alice Kyteler, accused of witchcraft, heresy and more, and explore the character and charm that still defines this iconic space today.
