Not something we asked for or even thought we wanted, but something we’re getting.
In possibly the best Friday news ever, Barry’s Tea gin is now a thing.
Food and drink mashups are something we tend to approach with caution, but I think we can agree we’re all in on this one.
Barry’s has teamed up with the Blackwater Distillery to produce a new premium craft Irish gin infused with citrus fruits, juniper and the finest tea there is (don’t even try it with me on this one).
We haven’t tasted it yet but are very excited about it as the tea apparently lends the spirit a spicy quality. Ideal for cold winter evenings.
This isn’t the first time Barry’s has dabbled with spirits – it created a number of signature tea-inspired cocktails made with certain blends of Barry’s.
The limited edition Blackwater Barry’s Tea Irish Gin is priced at €36 for a 70cl bottle but if you’re looking to get your hands on it, you could be out of luck – it’s sold out in a number of stockists already.
If you get your hands on it, hit us up!
