DescriptionKilbeggan Whiskey Distillery ca 1905.jpg
Presenting the world's oldest continuously licensed whiskey distillery at Kilbeggan, Co. Westmeath! Promised oaktree_brian_1976 a photo of a distillery, and hope this will suffice, although I'm sorry we don't have an interior shot. Happily, the date 1902 appears on one of the barrels, so perhaps 1903 can be our starting date?
