To make this extraordinary gin, Glendalough forage wild botanicals in the Wicklow mountains all year round.

Glendalough Wild Botanical Irish Gin serves the taste of 'a year in every bottle' and perfectly captures a place in time, with four seasons of foraging in wild Wicklow encapsulated in each bottle.
