Irish Gin | 43% ABV (86 Proof) | 750mL
Process & Profile
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Sardinian Citrus is a vibrant, citrus-forward expression from The Shed Distillery in County Leitrim, Ireland. This edition builds on the original Gunpowder Irish Gin recipe by infusing rare, hand-harvested citrus from Sardinia—specifically Citrus monstruosa, also known as Citrus of Sa Mura. Distilled in copper pot stills using the same exotic blend of botanicals, including gunpowder green tea, the addition of this unique fruit creates a more aromatic and zesty profile, perfect for warm-weather sipping or citrus-driven cocktails.
