Aldi Ireland has announced that it has teamed up, once again, with Monaghan-based Old Carrick Mill Distillery to introduce two exclusive small-batch Irish gins to 150 stores nationwide.
The first, Mo Chara Irish Pink Gin, is distilled using a range of botanicals, including pink grapefruit, juniper, lemon, lime, coriander, and angelica root. With its stunning blush tones and distinctive notes of grapefruit, Mo Chara Irish Pink Gin will retail at €19.99.
The second gin to hit shelves is an intriguing small-batch Irish gin distilled with pineapple, with subtle notes of other botanicals, such as juniper, coriander, angelica root, cassia, pear and lime, with a retail price of €19.99.
According to the distillery, the gins pair ‘wonderfully’ with any premium tonic water or lemon juice, and can be complemented by a slice of pink grapefruit or pineapple, respectively.
‘Impressed By Support’
Steven Murphy, founder of the Old Carrick Mill Distillery, Co. Monaghan, commented, “We have worked with the Aldi team for several years, and we continue to be impressed by their support of artisan Irish producers.
“With the support of Aldi, our small-batch gins have been able to reach a larger target audience, and we are delighted to see our Irish Pink Gin and Irish Pineapple Gin reach the shelves of 150 Aldi stores nationwide.
“We can’t wait to hear what consumers have to say once they taste the products,” Murphy said.
