Ha'Penny Dublin Dry Gin

Ha'Penny Dublin Dry Gin is a 41% ABV, 750mL small-batch, pot-distilled gin from Pearse Lyons Distillery in Dublin, Ireland — built on 13 botanicals: juniper berries, blackberries, dandelion flowers, lavender, geranium, orange peel, lemon peel, cracked black pepper, anise, angelica root, liquorice bark, coriander and cassia. The floral heart is deliberate: geranium, dandelion, lavender and blackberry are botanicals that would have grown in the walled gardens of Phoenix Park in Victorian Dublin, when the gin's namesake bridge was built.

A Victorian Garden in a Dublin Gin

Ha'penny is named for Dublin's Ha'penny Bridge over the River Liffey, and its gin reaches back to the bridge's Victorian era: the walled gardens of Phoenix Park, where geraniums, dandelion, lavender and blackberries would have grown within walking distance of the toll crossing. Pearse Lyons Distillery pot-distils those garden botanicals in small batches over a classic juniper-coriander-cassia spine, with citrus peel for brightness and cracked black pepper for a dry snap at the end. It is a gin that leads with flowers rather than resin — unmistakably Dublin in story and in the glass. Shop it on the Ha'penny vendor page or explore the gin shelf.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Floral, lavender-led aromatics (brand notes). Palate: Blackberry, lavender and orange peel with a lingering sweetness over the juniper base. Finish: Soft florals, citrus and gentle spice.

How to Enjoy

The brand's signature serve: premium tonic with a slice of lemon and a sprig of mint. The floral profile also suits a Bees Knees or a dry Martini garnished with citrus rather than olive.
