Skellig Six18 is a new micro distillery and visitor experience in Cahersiveen, on the Skellig coast of Co. Kerry. The name Skellig Six18 was inspired by the number of steps that lead to the monastery at top of the famed Skellig Michael. The distillery is home to one of Irelands newest Artisan Gin offerings, Skellig Six18 Gin and is the brainchild of husband and wife team, June O’Connell and Pat Cooney. The gin is crafted in small batches in an Italian bespoke pot still and is infused with local botanicals. Chapter One restaurant’s Head Chef Ross Lewis also collaborated on the aromatic additions to the gin. Skellig Six18 Distillery plans to begin whiskey distilling shortly, with hopes of releasing their first whiskey expression of Skellig Six18 Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey by Christmas 2024.
