I am co-founder of Muckross Wild Irish Gin, a mellow and elegant spirit inspired by the native botanicals of our National Park here in Muckross, Killarney.

My organisation

We are the Muckross Wild Irish Spirits Co. Ltd., and we are based in Killarney, close to our famous Muckross National Park in County Kerry, Ireland. With our passion for showcasing the rich heritage and natural beauty of our home, we offer a premium Irish craft gin inspired by the native wild botanicals that surround us. Hawthorn, blackthorn, rosehip and heather are blended with grapefruit and bitter orange to create a sophisticated flavour profile, floral on the nose with a big citrus burst on the palate. We distill in London Dry style, and offer a unique drinking experience. Our award-winning branding embodies the essence of Ireland's wild spirit and captures the magic of our picturesque landscape, and we were featured in Vogue UK's new picks in 2022. Embracing both tradition and innovation, we invite you to join us on a journey through the flavors of Ireland. A new spirit from an ancient Kingdom.

About me

I am a Killarney native and grew up close to Muckross National Park, spending childhood afternoons and weekends exploring the park with my parents and friends. My own background is in marketing and journalism, with my partner Martin's background is in mixology and as a flair bartender. When we moved back to Killarney, we decided to pursue our dream of creating a gin that would represent the beauty of our home in a new way.
