An Irish Gin That Rewards the Curious

Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin comes from the curious mind of PJ Rigney at The Shed Distillery in County Leitrim, where oriental botanicals meet Irish craft in a way no other gin attempts. Gunpowder tea, star anise, and fresh grapefruit and lime give it a citrus-bright, gently spiced character that turns an ordinary gin and tonic into something you remember.

This is the 1 Liter bottle, so you get a full third more than the usual 750ml pour, in the same striking blue glass that looks as good on the bar as it tastes in the glass. Perfect for the gin lover who has found their bottle and wants more of it, or anyone ready to discover why this one has such a devoted following.

🌿 Tasting Notes

• Nose: Bright citrus zest, juniper, and a soft floral lift from gunpowder tea.
• Palate: Fresh grapefruit and lime up front, warm oriental spice, clean juniper backbone.
• Finish: Long, gently peppery, and refreshingly crisp.

🍸 How to Enjoy

• Signature G&T: Pour over ice with a good tonic and a fresh grapefruit slice.
• Gunpowder Martini: Stir with dry vermouth and a lemon twist for a citrus-forward classic.
• Southside: Shake with lime, mint, and simple syrup for a garden-fresh cooler.
• Gift it: The eye-catching blue bottle and full liter size make it a generous, memorable present.

📖 The Story

The Shed Distillery was the first distillery in Connacht in over 100 years when it opened in the tiny village of Drumshanbo. PJ Rigney spent years experimenting before landing on this recipe, which balances traditional gin botanicals with gunpowder tea and oriental spices sourced from his travels along the 41st parallel. Every batch is slow-distilled in a copper pot still named Willie, and the result is a genuinely original Irish gin that has earned fans and awards worldwide.
