About Gunpowder Irish Gin
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin is produced in-house at The Shed Distillery, with a lakeside setting in Drumshanbo in Ireland. The gin features a combination of traditional gin botanicals such as juniper and orris root, oriental botanicals such as Gunpowder Tea from China, and meadowsweet from Ireland. The juniper, roots and seeds are distilled in copper pot stills along with a vapour infusion of the citrus botanicals and Gunpowder Tea. The Gin Guide Review Gunpowder Irish Gin is well-balanced and smooth, while delivering substantial flavour. There is a multi-layered character with no individual botanical shouting above the juniper, with the flavours all being brought together by the unifying tea flavours. It's a traditional gin with a twist, and the combination of juniper, citrus, spice, star anise and tea make for a distinctive and exciting product. Garnish Suggestion: Red Grapefruit. - Paul Jackson, 2017 Buy Drumshanbo Irish Gin
