The Shed Distillery lets the exotic sweetness of Brazilian pineapple weave through crystalline gunpowder tea and oriental botanicals in this edition of the house's signature gin.
Expert's description
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Brazilian Pineapple Irish Gin is an Irish gin from The Shed Distillery, bottled at 43%.
The gin builds on The Shed Distillery's original Gunpowder Irish Gin recipe with gunpowder tea and oriental botanicals, adding the exotic sweetness of Brazilian pineapple.
The pineapple gives a sweet, juicy character that harmonises with the gunpowder tea's earthy, gently spiced base rather than drowning it out.
The result is a sweet, tangy and refreshing gin with a smooth, well-balanced finish.
