WhiskyCast HD: The Tap Tavern in Kinsale, Ireland: A Classic Irish Pub
Irish pubs are legendary, but harder and harder to find. The Tap Tavern in Kinsale, County Cork, has been owned by the same family since 1886, and is one of the best examples of a classic Irish local around.

Day Trip to Kinsale, Cork - Ep. 18
I little rain never hurt anybody, right? Well, it sure didn't stop us from enjoying Kinsale! We stopped by the Castlepark Beach, climbed up to Fort James, watched a bit of the Kinsale Regatta Festival 2017, and even spotted some wildlife. We may have been a tad soggy in the end but we were on a quest to find some rainbows. Kinsale is truly a town you must visit if you're ever in Cork!

012 Kinsale Walks and the Kinsale Ghost Tour, plus review of Ardmore
Segment 1- Mindie
Kinsale – County Cork – off the coast of southern Ireland
Kinsale isn’t a thin place… sometimes you need to relax and rejuvenate and have fun. Most lovers of thin places and liminal spaces also love history and stories of local people – heroes, villains – and Kinsale is very rich in history that impacted the evolvement of society in the western world with the famous “Battle of Kinsale.”
Kinsale has two historic forts, Charles and James Forts. And so many other bits of interesting history.
Kinsale is of my favorite towns for relaxing. I love the vibe. The town is clean, vibrant It’s an art and foodie town. The people are friendly. It’s totally walkable and everywhere you look is color and light.
When you go to Kinsale a good way to get your bearings is to go on a tour guided by Don or Barry – on Don and Barry’s Historic Strolls. I was lucky enough to get an interview with Barry when I was in Kinsale recently.
segment 2 – guest interview
Barry Moloney – Don and Barry’s Kinsale Historic Stroll
Don and Barry’s Historic Stroll in Kinsale offers a walking tour full of history and interesting information about this seaside town in County Cork.
SEGMENT 3– Kinsale ghost tour
There are a few consistently operated ghost tours in Ireland. Being the owner of a ghost tour company here in the states, I always like to see what other companies and groups do when crafting and putting on a ghost tour. I’ve been on the ghost tour in Belfast and the Ghost Bus in Dublin. Both were great experiences through very different.
Kinsale has an interesting ghost tour. The term Ghost tour is so subjective. It can have multiple definitions in people’s minds. People can perceive ghost tours as anything from paranormal investigations to history walks to people dressed in character leading a theatrical performance.
Kinsale ghost tour is that kind of ghost tour – a performance and it’s quite comedic. Two actors, Brian O’Neill and Don Herlihy dress in character and lead their group of guests around the historic Kinsale town center and recount stories of ghosts and historical figures in way that keeps the guests’ attention and keeps guests laughing. This performance is so well done. And there are some elements of surprise.
The tour starts at Kinsale’s oldest tavern - the Tap Tavern, which has been owned by Brian O’Neill’s family since 1886. His mother, Mary O’Neill still owns it today and she and Brian manage the operations. Mary is often there when guests gather for the ghost tour. I had the pleasure of meeting her while I waited to speak to Brian.
The tour takes about 90 minutes. It covers all the interesting parts of the town and it is very entertaining. An evening well spent.
Don’t miss it if you’re in Kinsale.

SEGMENT 4 – Ardmore in County Waterford
Ard Mohr means Great Height
Ardmore: Great Height – blog post by Mindie Burgoyne
A seaside resort and fishing village. It’s near Youghal in the south of Ireland – not too far from Kinsale or Cork City.
Ardmore is a thin place. I guess I sense the thinness of a place on the approach. Maybe there’s something about the round tower, maybe something about the old ruins. But as you climb the hill to the old monastic ruins you get a jolt of something when the round tower comes into view. It’s a seaside town with a beautiful beach and sheltered bay. It’s a resort town for tourists with stunning views of the bay and a cliff walk above the town.
There are also ecclesiastical ruins in Ardmore are associated with St. Declan, a 5th-century saint who established this monastic community here on a hill at Ardmore… in fact the name Ard Mor – means “Great Height.” The devotional stops in Ardmore are traveled by pilgrims and associated with St. Declan. They include the ecclesiastical ruins up on the hill, a holy well, and a large stone on the beach.
According to one of the Lives written about him, St. Declan was born in this region and later went to Rome and became a bishop. He left Rome and returned to County Waterford - - to Ardmore with plans to build a monastery. However, he left without his bell. A bishop’s bell was similar to his crozier. A symbol of his authority. But because Declan was so special and so blessed, the angels set his bell afloat on a stone that traveled all the way across the sea to Ardmore. It still sits on the beach. It’s a large stone sitting atop two smaller ones and the stone is said to have curative powers for those who crawl...

Kinsale Ireland street feast food festival and all Ireland chowder competition Irish Food (2019)
Kinsale is known as the gourmet capital of Ireland and it really lived up to this reputation this weekend in this beautiful and colorful Irish town by the sea on the south coast of Ireland. A lot of the Kinsale good food circle restaurants turned out some delicious low cost street food on every corner of the town on the saturday for this Irish food festival, as well as a craft beer festival hosted in the marquee by Blacks brewery Kinsale. The next day in the marquee was a highly competitive Chowder competition with entrants from all corners of Ireland like Antrim, Galway, Donegal as well as Cork and Kerry and Kinsale itself. This really was a fabulous event that is a great tourist attraction and really should be repeated all over the country during summer festivals. Chowder could be become the national dish that is very tasty and can be endlessly inventive.

Kinsale, Ireland
Kinsale, Ireland, located on the Irish Sea just south of Cork, is a popular tourist destination in southern Ireland. The town mixes great sights, resturants and pubs with history. The Spanish Fleet sailed into the harbor in 1601 to aid Irish Clans push the English out of Ireland. English forces kept the parties from linking up and Ireland remained under English control until 1922. The passenger liner Lusitania was sunk near by in 1915 by a German U-Boat. This event helped to spur America to enter the First World War.
