Kilbeggan Distillery (formerly Brusna Distillery and Locke's Distillery) is an Irish whiskey distillery situated on the River Brosna in Kilbeggan, County Westmeath, Ireland, established in 1757 and owned by Suntory Global Spirits, a subsidiary of Suntory Holdings of Osaka, Japan.
A small pot still distillery, a copy of the licence to distil dated from 1757 which can be seen in the distillery. Similar to many Irish distilleries, Kilbeggan endured financial difficulties during the early 20th century, and ceased operations in 1957. However, the licence was maintained and the distillery was later refurbished, with distilling recommencing on-site in 2007.
