Description
Handcrafted in the tiny village of Drumshanbo in County Leitrim, Ireland, Gunpowder – Fig & Laurel Gin is the newest exploration from The Shed Distillery’s celebrated Gunpowder line. Master distiller PJ Rigney begins with his award-winning blend of eleven botanicals, including slow-dried Chinese Gunpowder tea, then layers in ripe Mediterranean figs and freshly picked laurel leaves to create a fragrant, fruit-forward gin that pours crystal clear in your glass. On the nose, expect a rush of wild herbs, sweet fig jam, and bright citrus zest mingling with classic juniper. The palate is silky and expressive: luscious fig sweetness unfurls first, quickly balanced by aromatic bay, green tea, and a peppery coriander snap. A lingering finish of soft honey, toasted almonds, and delicate spice invites the next sip and makes this 86-proof spirit as intriguing neat as it is in a cocktail.
Shake it into a gin sour, lengthen with tonic and a slice of fig, or elevate a fall-themed Negroni—however you serve it, this small-batch gin brings elegant complexity to your bar cart. Order your 750 mL bottle from Long Island Wine & Spirit Merchant in Commack, New York, and we’ll ship it straight to your door in any of the 50 states, or have it ready for fast local pickup and delivery across Long Island. Add a suede-lined wine & spirit gift box or custom engraving for a personal touch, or stock up by the case to keep your cocktail program well supplied. Enjoy elevated sipping always, cheers from Commack!
