When it comes to finding something special for your mum, Glendalough Rose Gin is the perfect choice. This tasty gin was first created to toast Rose, the mother of Glendalough Distillery’s Head Distiller Rowdy Rooney at his brother’s wedding.
Crafted using roses from her garden and wild mountain plants, this gin is incredibly unique. Speaking on the decision to create a gin dedicated to his mother, Rowdy told us “she had recently passed away, and we wanted her to be there in spirit, so to speak… Her favourite place was her garden, so we used that to make a gin.”
With constant care and attention, Rose’s garden produces just enough rose petals to include in every batch. Wild foraged plants from the mountains are picked fresh and distilled for the unique taste of wild Wicklow that you’d expect from Glendalough, while fresh rose petals bring the lofty floral air and give it its pink hue.
The taste profile of the Rose Gin is juniper-lead with floral notes and the layers of flavour come from fresh wild mountain flora and two different types of roses; wild Wicklow Mountain Roses (very rare, and very hard to find) and Heritage Roses (the classic country garden rose). The gentle taste has a distinct, floral finish and pairs perfectly with Schweppes tonic water, a slice of lime and a freshly torn and slapped sprig of mint.
To be in with a chance of winning one of TEN hampers up for grabs, all you've got to do is fill in the form below with your contact details.
Good luck!
Glendalough Distillery have created the perfect drink to toast with this Mother's Day in the form of their Rose Gin. Made with depth and meaning, visit the Glendalough Distillery website today to find out more. View Lovin Dublin Terms & Conditions here.
