Our award-winning classic London Dry Gin, distilled from the purest spirit, the finest botanicals and soft local water. The spirit balances the confident juniper notes of a traditional London Dry with bright coriander, warm cinnamon and zesty lemon. Blackwater No. 5 Gin is crisp and elegant, great as a G&T, and excellent in a cocktail.

We designed Blackwater No. 5 Gin from top to bottom using only the botanicals imported into Ireland by Whites of Waterford during the 19th century. Of the twelve botanicals used, ten are classic while two are rather special and probably unique to Blackwater No.5 Gin. All are locally sourced where possible, or from wherever in the world the finest grade happens to be.

the story of the producer

Blackwater Distillery

Blackwater Distillery is Ireland's newest craft distillery in West Waterford, producing Blackwater No5 Gin™.The inspiration Blackwater No.5’s botanicals came from the 19th century archives of White’s of Waterford, who were the country’s largest importers of spices, they also ran a ship yard and their vessels criss-crossed the globe importing tea from China and botanicals from the impossibly romantic ‘Spice Islands’.  Blackwater No. 5 is a classic London Dry Gin, distilled from the purest spirit, the finest botanicals and soft local water. It balances the confident juniper notes of a traditional London Dry with bright coriander, warm cinnamon and zesty lemon. As Peter Mulryan is a stickler for quality, he insists on first making a vodka which is then used as the base for the gin. Unlike others, they never use straight grain neutral alcohol. Blackwater No. 5 is crisp and elegant, great as a G&T, excellent in a cocktail. It is a gin for those who value quality over quantity, art over commerce and heart over-head
