Glendalough Wild Rose Irish Gin
Glendalough Wild Rose Irish Gin
This fresh, rose-petal gin was first made to honour our Head Distiller Ciaran “Rowdy” Rooney's mother Rose, at his little brother's wedding. Rose had recently passed away, and this was his way to have her there in spirit.
Carefully-tended flowers from her rose garden are vapor distilled with wild roses and plants from the mountains around the distillery to make this an intensely floral gin. After distilling, the gin is then further infused with even more roses to deepen the flavours and give it its lovely pink hue.

"Every single batch of Glendalough Wild Rose Irish Gin has roses from mammy's garden in it. She'd have loved it. She'd be so proud and I'm happy to be able to produce something that still helps us to connect with mam."
