Glendalough Rose Gin
To create Glendalough Rose Gin, the distillers remixed their Wild Botanical Gin recipe, bumping up the fruit, flower and spice notes. In addition, the distillers added three types of rose to the mix - specifically wild rose from the Wicklow mountains, heritage rose and Damask rose (a particularly esteemed variety). The result is as fragrant as you might imagine, though balanced brilliantly with the classic botanicals at its core. Should make a great Aviation cocktail...
This fresh, rose-petal gin was first made to honour our head distiller's mum, Rose, at his little brother's wedding. Rose had recently passed away, and this was his way to have her there in spirit - literally.
Carefully-tended flowers, from her rose garden are slowly vapor distilled with wild roses and plants from the mountains around the distillery to make this an intensely floral gin.
After distilling, the gin is then further infused with even more roses to deepen the flavours and give it its lovely pink hue.
This is not "just another pink gin", far from it. The depth and complexity really needs to be tasted to be understood. Floral, fragrant and flavourful, it is some of the best, most interesting gin we've made and comes after a lot of experimenting with plants, fruit, spices and flowers.
|TASTING NOTES|
Fresh flowers and fragrant juniper sweetness, blended by orange oil sharpness cutting through. A hint of liquorice slowly appears.

Tequila Villa Lobos is the result of a friendship and close

The agave used for Villa Lobos is harvested by agaveros
from the Camarena Family plantations in Los Altos, the
celebrated Arandas highlands, thus ensuring only the
