Evaluate: Drumshanbo with California Orange Citrus Gunpowder Irish Gin


We’re again with one other new Drumshanbo gin from Eire’s The Shed Distillery. Just like the 2021 addition to the portfolio, Drumshanbo With Sardinian Citrus, the identify is self-explanatory if a bit awkward. The main focus for this new gin, as soon as once more, is on the citrus element within the ginbill. The distillery’s founder, PJ Rigney, apparently fell in love with California oranges on a visit to the San Francisco Bay Space and determined so as to add it to the vapor-infused botanicals in his commonplace Gunpowder, presumably changing the Chinese language lemon (as with the previous launch). Ideas observe.

Just like the Sardinian Citrus launch, a small change in elements has given this Drumshanbo a sufficiently nuanced profile that also gained’t be an excessive amount of of a departure for followers of the traditional expression. As soon as once more, it’s extra citrus ahead, however not excessively so with a smooth undercurrent of pulpy orange slice and candy orange oil. At its core is identical gently natural Gunpowder character with notes of dried tea leaves and gentle juniper. On the palate, this gin stays true to Gunpowder type, impressively approachable with a balanced sweetness and gentle heat. Drumshanbo’s traditional inexperienced tea profile at first threatens to overpower the California citrus dimension, however with just a little time issues coalesce sufficiently with a extra traditional introduction of juniper and matcha that transitions to brighter, oily orange peel. The end lingers with orange candies and dried herbs. One other spectacular addition to the Gunpowder lineup.

86 proof.
