About the Organization
We are renowned for our vision of doing things differently. Our whiskeys embody this unconventional spirit, with innovation at the core of everything we do. Since opening, we have won over 20 awards, including “Best Visit in Ireland” and “Sustainable Distillery of the Year”. We are situated just a stone’s throw from our ancestral distillery in the Golden Triangle, the historic distilling district of the city. Since opening our doors in 2015 our fully guided tours have offered visitors the chance to explore a fully operational distillery and experience the complete whiskey-making process from milling and mashing to the maturation of our award-winning Irish whiskey. Sustainability is core to our philosophy across all operations, and we are constantly trying to lead the Irish whiskey category when it comes to our sustainable efforts. The company sources sustainable raw materials and implements sustainable production processes where possible. We are very proud to be a verified Origin Green member. This pioneering programme remains the world’s only national food and drinks sustainability programme that drives sustainability improvements across the entire supply chain on a national level. It enables Ireland’s food industry to set and achieve measurable sustainability targets that respect the environment and serve local communities more effectively; it is about measuring and improving on an ongoing basis.

On-site Supervision and Support
Our internships include 24/7 on-site staff to support students working and living abroad. All students will also report to a supervisor at their internship site. Supervisors provide and oversee daily tasks, introduce the intern to team members, and mentor the intern in organizational agility, skill acquisition, and career readiness. Interns complete a midpoint and final evaluation, and supervisors complete a final evaluation of their interns. All work responsibilities and projects are approved in advance.
