Skellig six18 distillery puts touch of class to the Ring of Kerry
June O'Connor, Paddy Cooney and Patrick Sugrue launched Skellig Six18 distillery in October 2019.
When June O’Connell, her husband Paddy Cooney, and their business partner Patrick Sugrue established Skellig six18 distillery along the Ring of Kerry in October 2019, little did they realise that within a few short months they would be reimaging the venture and innovating in areas where they might not have had to go at all were it not for the Covid-19 pandemic.
The three who have strong ties to Cahiersiveen launched the €10 million micro-distiller in a former sock manufacturing plant in a location where the landscape is rich with natural ingredients from the woodland to the Atlantic seashore.
