Kells Gin – A Taste of History in Every Sip
Crafted in Kells, Inspired by Tradition
Kells Gin is more than just a drink, undeniably, it’s a tribute to the rich heritage of Kells, the Monastic Capital of Medieval Ireland. The monks of Kells were not only scholars and scribes but also skilled brewers and distillers. Inspired by this legacy, Kells Gin blends twelve carefully selected botanicals, creating a distinctive taste that reflects the town’s unique history. Discover Kells Gin!
Botanicals & Flavour
The inspiration for Kells Gin is Victorian-era craftsmanship, because the women of Kells created the famous Kells Lace, incorporating local flora into their delicate designs. In the same way, this gin captures the essence of Kells with botanicals such as:
- Elderflower – Subtle floral sweetness
- Grains of Paradise – A hint of warm spice
- Sumac & Cubebs – Earthy and peppery undertones
- Citrus Orange Notes – A bright, zesty finish
Each sip tells a story of heritage and innovation.
Perfect Serve
Enjoy Kells Gin with a premium tonic, plenty of ice, and a slice of fresh orange. This enhances the citrus notes and creates a refreshing balance of flavours.
For something unique, try Kells Pink Gin. It’s a fusion of strawberry and floral botanicals, with no added sugars or flavourings. Serve with tonic, fresh strawberries, and a rosebud garnish for a true taste of summer.
Kells 0.0 – The Non-Alcoholic Option
For those who prefer a non-alcoholic alternative, Kells 0.0 delivers all the flavour without the alcohol. Crafted with juniper, angelica root, lemon, orange, and grapefruit, it provides a refreshing and sophisticated pour.
