Midleton Irish Whiskey Distillery

Midleton Distillery History 1975...

In 1966 The Cork Distillers Company amalgamated with their city rivals John Jameson & Son and John Power & Son together they formed the Irish Distillers Group.

The City distilleries were hemmed in with little room for expansion just expensive rebuilding was the only option. So the newly formed company decided that a new all-purpose distillery would be built at Midleton that would allow for future expansion.

In 1975 production at the Old Midleton Distillery was moved to the New Midleton Distillery built right next to the original one.

The New Midleton Distillery has a high production capacity. Using 13 stills that are operated three at a time in different combinations to produce the various whiskeys.

The Distillery produces whiskey for four different brands; Jameson, Paddy, Powers Gold Label and Midleton. The distillery also produces a significant volume of grain whisky.

The annual production capacity at the New Midleton Distillery is 19 million litres.

The beautiful Old Midleton Distillery currently serves as a visitor centre where the history of Irish whiskey may be studied.
