A Taste of Curiosity and Craftsmanship
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin is not just a spirit—it’s a journey of discovery. Born in the wilds of County Leitrim, this exceptional gin is the creation of PJ Rigney, a man with a restless curiosity and a passion for innovation. At The Shed Distillery, he crafted a gin that fuses tradition with the exotic, resulting in a truly remarkable product.
Every bottle tells a story. It begins in a medieval copper pot still and ends with a symphony of botanicals, both local and oriental. This handcrafted Irish gin carries a signature boldness, enriched by carefully selected ingredients from across the world.
Unique Botanicals from East to West
What sets Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin apart is its rare blend of botanicals. It combines eight pot-stilled ingredients with four vapour-infused elements. Each one has been meticulously chosen from PJ Rigney’s travels through Asia and Europe.
The standout ingredient? Chinese gunpowder tea. This green tea lends the gin a subtle, smoky flavor that is both distinctive and captivating. Alongside it, fresh citrus fruits and rare herbs balance the profile with bright, zesty notes. The result is a gin that surprises with every sip.
Crafted with Care at The Shed Distillery
The gin is slow-distilled by hand using traditional methods. Inside The Shed Distillery, medieval copper pot stills are the heart of the operation. This slow distillation process extracts every layer of aroma and taste, giving the gin its refined, clean character.
Each batch is a tribute to quality and patience. There’s no rushing perfection here. Instead, the process honours the centuries-old distilling traditions while embracing innovation.
