Northern Irish Gin

Gin has seen a surge in popularity in recent years, with all manner of flavours and styles being introduced to the market. Gin is made from grain alcohol and to be recognised as a ‘gin’ must have juniper berries as it’s predominant flavour and be 37.5% alcohol by volume or higher. If it doesn’t taste of juniper or is below 37.5% ABV it isn’t gin! Other than juniper berries, you can use any number of botanicals to make the gin to your specific tastes. The process to make gin is similar to vodka, but whereas vodka is tasteless, gin is all about the flavour! How is Copeland Irish gin different? Our Irish gin has unique flavours and scents, due to our combination of 12 wild and fair botanicals including a small flower from the nearby Copeland Islands, Sea Pink Maritima.

Copeland Irish gin is not just award winning; it is almost perfect! Scoring an Outstanding Gold award with 99/100 points, from the IWSC, International Wine & Spirit Competition, in 2022 and also won the best contemporary gin trophy. I guess that means it’s the worlds’ best gin for 2022!. Copeland gin distillery offers a range of unique and distinct gins to suit novice gin drinkers and gin connoisseurs alike.

This is the trademark and pride of the Copeland gin distillery, wining awards from the IWSC and a Gold medal at the Gin Masters in 2021, which is the most prestigious and highly regarded blind taste competition in the industry. With its traditional juniper taste and use of navel oranges as our main citrus botanical, our Irish gin only needs your favourite tonic and twist of orange peel for a perfect G&T!

Made in honour of the US Navy captain John Paul Jones’ victory in the battle of Copelands, this is anavy strength gin made to turn heads! This extra strong 57% ABV gin is produced by aging our Irish gin in Kentucky bourbon casks for 120 days, then a further 20 days in an Oloroso sherry cask. This is truly a unique and special gin for a gin and tonic, garnished with a slice of apple. Taste the authentic Copeland navy strength gin for yourself!

Looking for something a little different and refreshing for those summer weekends? The Raspberry and Mint Copeland Irish gin still retains the hallmark juniper taste, with a twist. All of the fruits used are locally sourced, giving you a true taste of Northern Ireland.

Our Rhuberry gin is truly beautiful – a blend of rhubarb and blackberry gives a sweet twist to the traditional juniper-based alcohol. Using locally sourced fruit,,this is another great summer drink to introduce to your favourite tonic. It even works great with lemonade, garnished with lemon peel and a blackberry.
