The story behind it
The maker
Founded by PJ Rigney in 2014, The Shed Distillery is the first multi-purpose distillery in Connacht in over a century. PJ set out to create a boundary-pushing gin by merging wild Irish flora with remarkable botanicals discovered on his global travels.
How it is made
Crafted at The Shed Distillery in Drumshanbo, Ireland, this gin combines traditional Irish distillation methods with exotic botanicals. The signature ingredient, gunpowder tea, is slowly dried and rolled into small pellets that unfurl during distillation.
From County Leitrim, Ireland
