Dublin and Cork Airport Duty Free are delighted to announce the recent launch of the exclusive collector’s edition, Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin ‘Year of the Horse’. This is now exclusively available at Dublin and Cork Airport Duty Free for three months before launching in over 100 countries worldwide.


The striking gold-foiled edition was officially unveiled at Dublin Airport by champion jockey Nina Carberry, alongside founder Pat Rigney and ARI buyer Damien Smith, celebrating Ireland’s legendary racehorses – from Arkle and Red Rum to Yeats, Galileo, Montjeu and Primero.

Slow-distilled by hand with oriental botanicals and gunpowder tea at The Shed Distillery, this special release beautifully blends Irish horseracing heritage with Chinese tradition. Special in-store celebrations are set to continue beyond Chinese New Year to coincide with the upcoming Cheltenham Festival, making this a truly standout moment for passengers.

Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin presents a limited edition in a ceramic bottle. This gin is the remarkable fruit of the peregrinations of an inquisitive mind — as unique and remarkable as the elusive creature occasionally glimpsed by PJ in the fields, the Drumshanbo Jackalope, a legendary animal that is both hare and antelope.
