Northern Ireland is blessed with a bountiful natural larder. For passionate chefs and food lovers the abundance of indigenous ingredients make this unique corner of Ireland a haven for those who love to indulge in the finer things. Paula has created this rum using the seasonal gifts that nature provides. It is infused with blackberries picked from bulging hedgerows in the rural country lanes around her homeplace in Aghadowey and the north coast. The aromatic canary yellow flowers of the gorse bush add a smooth and subtle coconut flavour. Raw honey from the townland of Ballybannan in the Mourne Mountains adds a touch of caramel sweetness testament to contented bees having feasted on springtime gorse, hawthorn blossom and clover. Paula McIntyre rum is a culture collision of fine spirit from the Caribbean and the essence of the Northern Ireland countryside. So let’s raise our glasses to culinary legacies that cross an ocean and bring us all closer together. Cheers!
