Excellent cocktails, a tribute to the great classics, perfectly balanced and ready to be enjoyed with just a few nice ice cubes.
The secret of its freshness lies at the heart of the French gin, in fennel, caraway, dill and angelica seeds. In a discreetly bitter orange that melts into the dry vermouth.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE: Bitter orange peel, gentian, caraway, angelica, fennel, accompanied by subtle notes of dill and mint.
PALATE: Beautifully balanced and very refreshing aromas. A perfect balance between summery sweetness and bitterness.

To make this extraordinary gin, Glendalough forage wild botanicals in the Wicklow mountains all year round. Geraldine Kavanagh, our full time forager, brings the wild, fresh botanicals to the distillery within hours of foraging where small-batch slow-distillation is used to tease out the delicate botanical flavours. 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.
A welcome return to Suffolk’s brewery/distillery for our second batch of Adnams single malt whisky. This release has spent it’s time maturing a second fill French Oak cask, followed by an Islay Cask finish, so while not a smoky malt in itself, the ex-Islay cask brings a smoky dimension to this English malt. Adnams is a long established brewery with a colourful history of over a century in the making. Their Copper House distillery was opened in 2010 and was the first brewery to be legally distilling spirits in the UK. Their first whisky was bottled in December 2013
