Description
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin 70cl, 43% is a handcrafted Irish gin from The Shed Distillery in Drumshanbo, County Leitrim. Created by PJ Rigney, it combines Irish and oriental botanicals in a distinctive fresh and aromatic style, with Chinese gunpowder tea at the heart of its identity.
This gin is slowly distilled by hand in medieval copper pot stills and uses a combination of 8 pot-still botanicals and 4 vapour-infused botanicals. Fresh citrus and Chinese gunpowder tea bring brightness and lift, while juniper, spices, berries and floral notes give it structure and depth.
Bottled at 43%, Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin is crisp, balanced and versatile. It is excellent with premium tonic and fresh red grapefruit, but also works beautifully in gin cocktails where citrus, spice and botanical complexity are needed.
