Drumshanbo Gunpowder 1L

If you are looking for a premium Irish gin with real character, Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin 1L is one of the most distinctive bottles you can add to your drinks cabinet. Created at The Shed Distillery in Drumshanbo, County Leitrim, this gin brings together the curious mind of founder PJ Rigney, traditional slow distillation, and a flavour profile that stands apart from the ordinary. The producer describes it as a combination of fresh citrus, oriental botanicals and the intriguing character of Chinese gunpowder tea.

Tasting Notes

Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin opens with bright, zesty citrus aromas, followed by a fragrant botanical lift and a gently exotic tea-like note. On the palate, expect a clean, fresh entry with layers of juniper, citrus peel and warming spice, balanced by the subtle complexity of Chinese gunpowder tea. The finish is crisp, smooth and lingering, making it ideal for a refined gin and tonic or a citrus-forward cocktail. These tasting cues are consistent with the producer’s own emphasis on fresh citrus, oriental botanicals and gunpowder tea.
