This Irish gin stands out through its innovative fusion of Asian gunpowder tea with traditional Irish and European botanicals, creating a distinctive East-meets-West flavour profile. The gunpowder tea adds subtle smoky and earthy notes that complement the citrus and herbaceous elements, making it more complex than typical London Dry gins. This unique botanical blend reflects distiller PJ Rigney's creative approach to gin-making at The Shed distillery.

The gin's light-bodied character and complex botanical profile make it incredibly versatile for serving. Its citrus and herbaceous notes shine in a classic G&T with premium tonic and a lime garnish, while the gunpowder tea elements make it exceptional neat over ice for sipping. The included high-ball glass is perfectly designed to showcase the gin's aromatics and enhance the drinking experience.

This gift pack combines the 700mL bottle of Drumshanbo Gunpowder Gin with a specially designed high-ball glass and beautiful presentation packaging. The inclusion of proper glassware is significant because gin's botanical complexity requires the right vessel to concentrate aromatics and enhance flavour perception. This thoughtful presentation makes it an ideal gift that provides everything needed for an elevated gin experience.

Drumshanbo Gin is crafted at The Shed distillery in the picturesque lakeside town of Drumshanbo, Ireland, by distiller PJ Rigney. This location in Ireland's heartland provides pure water and a serene environment that influences the gin's character. The distillery's artisanal approach and Rigney's vision of blending global botanicals with Irish craftsmanship has created a gin that's gained international recognition.

The gin delivers a sophisticated balance of bright citrus notes and herbaceous botanicals, enhanced by the distinctive earthy and slightly smoky character from the gunpowder tea. This creates layers of flavour that evolve on the palate, starting with fresh citrus brightness and finishing with subtle tea-like complexity. The light-bodied nature ensures these flavours remain elegant and refined rather than overpowering.
