The story behind it

The maker

Founded by PJ Rigney in 2014, The Shed Distillery is situated in the remote, wild countryside of County Leitrim, Ireland. Rigney sought to fuse his curious discoveries from travels across the globe with local Irish distilling tradition.

How it is made

Crafted at The Shed Distillery in Drumshanbo, this gin is distilled in medieval copper pot stills. It brings together local botanicals with exotic oriental ingredients, most notably gunpowder tea leaves that are slowly dried before distillation.
