Gunpowder Irish Gin with Italian Fig & Laurel has been created in collaboration with world champion mixologist and bartender Bruno Vanzan as a new take on a classic spirit. The product starts off with the signature Gunpowder Irish Gin recipe that includes 12 botanicals sourced from nine countries and is elevated with two additional botanicals including the namesake Italian Viola Fig and Tuscan Juniper. These additions to the recipe give the spirit a fresh citrus flavor with oriental botanical notes, while the fig, laurel and Tuscan juniper further refine the flavor.
