Glendalough Wild Rose Irish Gin
Glendalough Wild Rose Irish Gin began as a deeply personal act of love. Head Distiller Ciaran "Rowdy" Rooney first made it to honour his mother Rose, who had recently passed away, at his little brother's wedding. This was his way to have her there in spirit. Carefully-tended flowers from her rose garden are vapour distilled alongside wild roses and plants from the mountains around the distillery. After distilling, the gin is further infused with even more roses to deepen the flavours and give it its beautiful natural pink hue. Every single batch carries roses from that garden. It is a gin made with grief, love, and craft in equal measure. Why You'll Love It This is one of the most distinctive and emotionally resonant gins in Ireland. The flavour profile is intensely floral yet beautifully balanced, with bright citrus on the nose, rose petal and Turkish Delight on the palate, and a long finish of pink peppercorn and earthy spice. At 37.5% ABV it is approachable and versatile, equally at home in a simple gin and tonic or a Rose and Raspberry Fizz. World Gin Awards Country Winner in both 2021 and 2023 confirms its standing as Ireland's finest flavoured gin. Distillery and Production Glendalough Distillery, County Wicklow, Ireland.

Tanqueray Rangpur Lime Gin
Tanqueray Rangpur Gin is introduced as a bright, zesty and exotically citrus‑forward expression from the historic Tanqueray distillery, crafted to highlight the rare Rangpur lime—a fruit from India that blends the sharpness of lime with the sweetness of mandarin. First released in 2006, it builds on Tanqueray’s classic four‑botanical base while adding a vivid citrus twist that feels refreshing, smooth and distinctly different from traditional London Dry styles. The aroma opens with lively lime zest, soft mandarin notes, gentle ginger warmth and a hint of bay leaf. On the palate, it offers a smooth, crisp texture with flavours of bright citrus, subtle spice, juniper and a clean, juicy freshness that keeps the profile vibrant without overwhelming the gin’s structure. The finish is zesty, lightly spiced and pleasantly lingering, leaving a clear echo of Rangpur lime and soft botanicals. This gin stands as a versatile and easy‑drinking addition to any collection, ideal for citrus‑forward G&Ts, refreshing long drinks, or adding a lively twist to classics like the Gimlet or Tom Collins. Anyone who enjoys bright, aromatic citrus flavours layered over a refined gin backbone will find Tanqueray Rangpur a distinctive and memorable choice.
