Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin With Sardinian Citrus 70 cl 43%

Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin With Sardinian Citrus is a bright, aromatic Irish gin that marries the classic Gunpowder style with a distinctly zesty Mediterranean twist. A juniper-led base is layered with exotic/oriental botanicals and the signature gunpowder tea (green tea), adding a refined dryness and gentle spice. The expression is lifted by Sardinian citrus (Citrus monstruosa), bringing a vibrant citrus character that can feel like a cross between orange, grapefruit and lemon, with an elegant, slightly bitter edge.

Nose & palate:
Fresh citrus up front with juniper, soft herbs and spice. On the palate it’s lively and rounded: juniper and spice first, followed by a clear citrus burst. The tea note and botanicals build complexity through the finish, which stays long, clean and subtly dry with a lingering citrus bitterness.

Serving suggestions:

• Gin & Tonic: lots of ice, a clean premium tonic, finished with grapefruit peel or lemon zest.

• Martini: a drier serve where the citrus and tea notes really shine.

• Light citrus-forward cocktails: works especially well when the mixer lets the citrus lead.

Producer:
Made by The Shed Distillery of PJ Rigney in Drumshanbo, County Leitrim, Ireland. The distillery is known for small-batch distillation and an adventurous approach to botanicals sourced from around the world—gunpowder tea and citrus being key signatures of the range.
