Clonakilty Distillery Minke Irish Gin Review
Crafted with a whey-derived base spirit, this Irish gin from Clonakilty Distillery serves up a bright, citrusy, and balanced profile. Its botanical build notably includes hand-foraged rock samphire that imparts a hint of earthy, fennel-like notes on the palate.
