​​​​​​​Seasons & Spirits
A Night with Dingle Distillery

​​​​Join us for Seasons & Spirits: A Night with Dingle Distillery—a relaxed evening where whiskey and food come together to tell a story. Each course will be paired with Dingle whiskeys that have been crafted to reflect the changing seasons of the Celtic festival wheel. We’re talking winter warmth, the freshness of spring, summer’s rich flavours, and a taste of autumn—all tailored to match each dish inspired by the heart of Kerry.

It’s an easy-going night to enjoy great drinks, local flavours, and good company. Come for the whiskey, stay for the craic!

WHISKEY PAIRING PLAYLISTS

We'll be keeping these playlists restricted to 10 songs, to get the point across.  But Spotify's algorithms are so good these days, there's nothing stopping you from applying radio to the playlist and seeing where it takes you.

  • Our first round-up brings us to a place of contemplation.  This is not a playlist made for a big gathering or singalong belters. But a quiet drink after dark, maybe it's on the porch, in the rocking chair, or on your favourite park bench.  One thing is for sure - you'll need a stiff drink and some good speakers.

    Our first track is an old honky-tonker and should probably be enjoyed first to ease into what will become a more melodramatic soundscape.  Drift through some classic Pogues and country before hitting a Dylan B-side (you'll still recognise it).  Willy takes us through a Vedder cover, then into some more contemporary country and then a hit of soul, before we some real soul searchers to finish.  I was suprised to finish with the Fab Four, but it just worked as a closer.  Maybe the whiskey is empty at this point, maybe you're all thinked out.

    The playlist was designed to spark thought, some internal soul-searching, and a good rhythm and tempo for sipping on something easy.
