Clonakilty Minke Gin
€34,95
Inspired by the Minke Whale, the majestic creatures that swim wild off our Atlantic Ocean coastline. The same local coastline is home to the unique botanical that gives Minke Gin its distinct flavour profile.
FORAGED BY HAND
We climb the cliffs along our shoreline to sustainably harvest native Rock Samphire, only by hand and only in season. It’s really worth the effort!
MINKE SPIRIT
The base spirit used to make Minke Gin is derived from whey, produced from our 9th generation family farm near Galley Head Lighthouse. This gives a unique velvety texture and mouthfeel to each delicious drop.
For Minke Gin we go full circle, grass to glass, harvesting nature at its best.
Soft spices, vanilla, fresh cut grass, slightly perfumed, ripe apple/pear notes. Fresh leather tones.
It’s really worth the effort!

Lorenzo van der Weiden –
Lovely gin! It is so good and sweet. I like it. I drink this one every week. Try it!
Adriaan –
This gin is perfect, if you drink it pure you taste every time the small tastes like vanilla, and tones off apple/pear and it is subtile enough for almost every mix,
John –
Not a gin drinker but I actually like this. Good flavour and it mixes perfectly with tonic. Next time I’ll try to add more fruit to see how that plays out.
Sven –
I love this Gin. It is very subtile and has a very nice aroma and drink.
Thank you DJ for letting me taste this at your tasting experience at the Navarino Bay in Greece.
I hope you can send me some bottles to Greece so I can let my friends have the same experience!
