Tullamore D.E.W.

The brand originates in the town of Tullamore (County Offaly) and takes its name from the initials of Daniel Edmund Williams. Distilling activity on the site dates back to 1829. The brand went through various ownerships and production phases; in 2010 it was acquired by William Grant & Sons, which later built a new distillery in Tullamore, bringing production back on site (first phase completed in 2014; a subsequent investment for a grain whiskey production facility was completed after 2014).

Pursuit of balance and smoothness through the combination of three types of whiskey (pot still, malt and grain), maturation across multiple cask types and a 'grain to glass' approach to control the entire production process.

Tullamore, County Offaly, Ireland (production site and visitor centre at Clonminch, Tullamore).

Grain-to-glass production at the Tullamore distillery: triple distillation, blending of three spirit types (pot still, malt and grain) and maturation using a multi-cask approach (triple cask maturation).
