Drink Tourism

Eating lunch at Farmgate, I wondered why an American family would be spending time in Midleton. It is a lovely town, but I was not sure what a family with adult children and their partners have a lunch, with a couple bottles of wine would be doing in a small town in County Cork. They did not seem like a family who were on a voyage to connect with ancestors. But then I espied their bags from the Jameson Experience and remembered there was a factory tour, and they were likely in Ireland to enjoy some of the more prominent products of Ireland. Originally distilled in Dublin, the world’s best-selling whiskey is now manufactured in Midleton.
