While whiskey has been a staple in Ireland for centuries, there’s a new player in town that’s making waves: Apple Gin. In this blog, we’ll explore the exciting resurgence of Irish whiskey and dive into the delicious world of Apple Gin. Symphonia Spirits, nestled in the heart of Dungannon, Ireland, is at the forefront of this exciting movement. Let’s raise our glasses and discover the remarkable journey of Irish spirits together.
The Irish Whiskey Resurgence
In recent years, Irish whiskey has been experiencing a renaissance, drawing the attention of spirits enthusiasts worldwide. Its rich history dates back to the 12th century when monks began distilling uisce beatha, or “water of life,” as they called it. Over time, Irish whiskey gained a reputation for its smoothness and distinct flavour profile.
But what’s driving this resurgence? It’s a combination of factors, including a renewed focus on quality, craftsmanship, and innovation. As a craft gin manufacturer, Symphonia Spirits understands the importance of using high-quality ingredients and innovative methods to create exceptional spirits, and we’ve taken this ethos to the realm of whiskey.
Symphonia’s foray into Irish whiskey is a testament to their commitment to excellence, and one of their most exciting creations is Apple Gin.
Apple Gin — A Twist on Tradition
Apple Gin is a modern twist on the classic spirit, and it’s gaining popularity for its unique flavour profile and versatility in cocktails. Symphonia Spirits has taken this concept and added their signature touch of quality and innovation, creating an Apple Gin that captures the essence of the Northern Irish countryside.
So, what makes Apple Gin stand out? It begins with the finest ingredients. Symphonia’s dedication to quality ensures that only the best apples are used in the distillation process. These apples are hand-picked from local orchards in the Orchard of Ireland, infusing the spirit with the flavours of the region.
The Science Behind the Spirit
Symphonia Spirits approaches their craft with a scientific mindset, led by founder and distiller Ric, who is also an organic chemist. This scientific approach is at the heart of their process, ensuring precision and consistency in every bottle.
The distillation process of Apple Gin involves harnessing the power of science to extract the delicate flavours and fragrances of botanicals in an eco-efficient way. This means preserving the natural essence of apples and other botanicals while minimising the carbon footprint—a true fusion of science and nature.
Embracing the Giant Spirit
Symphonia’s commitment to the Northern Irish countryside runs deep. They embrace the “giant spirit” of the region, living, working, and creating amidst the lush landscapes that inspire their spirits. This connection to the land is reflected in every sip of Apple Gin, transporting you to the heart of Ireland with each taste.
Giving Back to the Country
Symphonia’s ethos goes beyond crafting exceptional spirits; it’s also about giving back to the country they call home. Their success is intertwined with the energy and inspiration they draw from Northern Ireland. By supporting local farmers and using sustainable practices, Symphonia Spirits contributes to the well-being of the region that fuels their creativity.
