Donegal is getting its own whiskey distillery on the Gealtacht cliffs

Donegal is one of the most scenic counties in Ireland, and now it's getting its very own whiskey distillery.

The combo of stunning cliffs, a gealtacht, the wild atlantic way and whiskey means that Carrick in Donegal is soon going to become a hotspot for tourists.

The Sliabh Liag Distillery at Carrick in Donegal will be this first whiskey distillery in the county in over 174 years.

With the views, there really is no better place and while everything is still in the planning stages, the owners, James Doherty and Margaret Cunningham have already debuted their first whiskey called The Silkie.

We can't wait to try it.
