Crafting Spirits in Kerry (opens the original)
Read excerpt
By definition, a craft spirit is âan artisanal alcoholic beverage produced in small batches by independent distilleries.â The makers emphasize quality, unique flavors, and traditional production methods and, as I discovered during a recent visit to County Kerry, a strong sense of place. Nothing screams âKillarneyâ more than the name Muckross â fifteenth century Muckross Abbey, nineteenth century Muckross House, Gardens, & Farm, and twentieth century Muckross Park Hotel, to name just a

For Yummy Fall Desserts, Bake Some Fruit  The calendar might read âSeptember,â but Iâm not quite ready to jump into all-things pumpkin.

There’s evidence of the region's unique heritage and culture everywhere, from standing stones to beehive huts and stone circles, and the natural beauty of the region often comes with descriptors like “scene stealing” and “breathtaking.” Both seem inadequate when you see the area in person, especially If you venture off the route to tour the Skellig Ring (
