Glendalough - Wild Botanical Irish Gin (750ml)

To make this extraordinary gin, we forage wild botanicals in the Wicklow mountains all year round. Geraldine Kavanagh, our full time forager, brings the wild, fresh botanicals to the distillery within hours of foraging where small-batch slow-distillation is used to tease out the delicate botanical flavours.

Glendalough Wild Botanical Irish Gin serves the taste of 'a year in every bottle' and perfectly captures a place in time, with four seasons of foraging in wild Wicklow encapsulated in each bottle.

Created in homage to the bountiful valley of Glendalough in County Wicklow, the new bottle has been designed to look as though it has been picked straight from the Wicklow forest floor.

Full-time Forager Geraldine Kavanagh's care for the land is preserved with a woven pattern sitting at the base of the bottle, representing the handwoven basket with which she forages daily. From here, wild botanicals grow and are beautifully embossed around the bottle. Look closely and you will find reverent nods to Glendalough's ancient past including the monastery archway, seven churches and deer stone. In this way, our bottle is transformed into a secret map, for those who know how to use it.
