For a unique tour experience, lucky residents of Longueville House may partake in a fun and educational tour of our walled garden, apple orchards, view the crush house, fermentation plant, and distillery followed by a tasting of Longueville House Cider, Cider Mór, and Apple Brandy.

Of the 400 acres that make up the estate of Longueville House, 32 acres are planted with apple trees from which the O'Callaghan family produces one of the best independent craft apple ciders in Ireland, some of this is then double distilled to make Ireland's only Apple Brandy, 40% ABV.

With the guidance of Dan Duggan - Longuevilles’ chief Apple Brandy Distiller and Cider Maker, and the knowledge of Rubert Atkinson Beverage Sales & Marketing Manager, residents of Longueville House may experience this educational and interesting process right here on site.
