In addition to traditional ingredients from the gin world such as juniper berries or Angelica root, Chinese green tea is used here. Gunpowder as well as many citrus fruits such as Kombava, Lemon and Grapefruit. The aromatic is therefore resolutely oriented towards a very fine exoticism and evolves on delicious citrus notes supported by a subtle spicy touch.

The House : The Shed Distillery, creator of this Gin, is based in the town of Drumshanbo in the North of Southern Ireland. This distillery was founded in 2014 by PJ Rigney, an Irish veteran of the spirits industry. His will: to create spirits inspired by his experiences in a wild place where nature is queen, in the heart of rural Ireland. Here is why the botanicals used come from all over the world (China, Indonesia, India, Morocco etc.), echoing PJ Rigney's many travels around the world. In order to make the connection with Ireland, the locally growing Meadowsweet plant is also used. The animal represented on the bottles is the "Jackalope", an animal that is both hare and antelope from American legends.
