Description
Glendalough Rose Gin is a particularly elegant and floral gin creation from Ireland, whose origins are closely linked to the distillery's personal history. This gin was first produced by Head Distiller Ciaran "Rowdy" Rooney in honor of his late mother Rose - a tribute he created on the occasion of his brother's wedding to have her "in spirit" on this special day. Freshly tended roses from her private garden are used for the production, together with wild roses and botanical plants from the distillery's surrounding mountains. This botanical variety is vapor-distilled in a particularly gentle process, which ensures that the fine floral aromas remain clear and intense. The gin is then macerated again with roses, which both deepens the aroma and produces its delicate rosé hue.
The style of Glendalough Rose Gin is characterized by a harmonious combination of floral notes, light sweetness and a fresh citrus structure. At 37.5% vol., it is smooth, easily accessible and ideal for light, aromatic summer drinks. The combination of artisanal distillation, Irish wild plants and the emotional story of its creation makes this gin a distinctive specialty within the floral gin segment.

Its delicate sweetness goes particularly well with light dishes such as summer salads, goat's cheese or mildly spiced fish dishes. Desserts such as lemon tart, berry mousse or rose pastries also benefit from its aromatic rose and citrus notes. Served neat or on ice, Glendalough Rose Gin reveals its full floral intensity and remains fragrant and elegant for a long time. (automated translation)
