Dingle Irish Dry Gin Pot Still Original

Dingle Dry Gin Pot Still Original is the flagship gin from the Dingle Distillery, located in County Kerry, Ireland. Founded in 2012 by three former brewers who aimed to bring artisan distilling back to the Dingle Peninsula, the distillery also produces whiskey and vodka. Dingle Original Gin is crafted in small batches using a custom-designed copper pot still named "Oisín."   

Key Features:

• Irish Origin: Distilled on the Dingle Peninsula in Ireland.  
• Pot Still Production: Made in a traditional copper pot still.
• Unique Irish Botanicals: Features a blend of traditional gin botanicals alongside locally foraged ingredients that aim to capture the "taste of the Kerry landscape." These include:
  • Rowan berries from the mountain ash trees   
  • Fuchsia   
  • Bog myrtle   
  • Hawthorn   
  • Heather   
   
• London Dry Style: While using unique botanicals, it is categorized as a London Dry Gin. This means that the juniper flavor should be prominent, and no flavorings are added after distillation.   
• Water Source: The gin is cut to its final strength using pure water drawn from the distillery's own well, 240 feet below the surface.   
• ABV: Bottled at 42.5%.   
• Serving Suggestion: Often recommended served with large cubes of ice, a wedge of fresh orange, and a sprinkling of juniper berries.   

Tasting Notes:

• Aroma: Frequently described as fresh and floral, with noticeable piney juniper and a citrus zest, often with hints of heather.   
• Palate: Expect a balanced palate where the traditional juniper is complemented by the unique Irish botanicals. Notes of lush fruit, sometimes described as muddled red berries or blackberry marmalade, and herbal elements like mint or eucalyptus can be present. A touch of spice, such as black pepper or coriander, may also appear.   
• Finish: Typically clean and refreshing, with a lingering juniper presence alongside citrus and sometimes a subtle minty or menthol coolness.   

Awards and Recognition:

• World's Best Gin at the 2019 World Gin Awards.  
• World's Best London Dry Gin at the 2019 World Gin Awards.
• Numerous other gold and silver medals from prestigious spirits competitions.

Overall Impression:

Dingle Dry Gin Pot Still Original is a highly regarded gin that successfully blends the classic structure of a London Dry with a distinctive Irish terroir.
