Imagine 100 year old Organic Rhubarb growing right on the edge of the beach in a salty garden & wild Armagh Bramleys from my uncles 120 year old wind driven, knarled apple trees.

These are the ingredients that have inspired us to make Ard Rí Gin, which makes it literally fit for a King! ( pronounced Ard Ree / which translates to High King in English ).

After distillation, we age Ard Rí Gin for a month at 86% before diluting with pure triple filtered water to 43%…..this Gin is so smooth, you could drink it neat with ice BUT paired with a good Irish tonic such as Poachers Citrus, it is exceptional.

We already hold a Silver Medal from the 2019 World Gin Awards for our Titanic Gin… expect the same top quality form our latest Ard Rí Gin

House of Navan Spirits Co. based in County Armagh, Ireland.

We have created Ard Rí Gin to honour the High Kings of Ireland who ruled from the ancient hill top site of Navan Fort for 2500 years.

We took inspiration for this Gin when my grandmother asked me to pick Rhubarb that was growing nearly wild in her back garden. Planted for over 100 years, this Rhubarb flourishes in the high winds where you can taste the salt on your lips .

To balance the tartness of the Rhubarb during distillation, we have also added more ‘zestiness’ by using some top quality Armagh Bramley apples, finishing off with organic ginger to add a warming, full bodied smooth finish to the palate.

This premium contemporary style, small batch Gin, uses traditional botanical such as Juniper, Coriander, Orange & Lemon peel as well as an unexpected infusion of Armagh Bramley Apples to create a delicate dry crisp taste.

Ard Rí is perfect for cocktails, as it has an unusual and complex nose with citrus and apple aromas. Sweet pallet initially with a fruity and slightly nutty finish.
