So goes the tale of MíL….. The warrior who voyaged over the sea from Iberia to Eireann, where he ascended the lands of Ireland, becoming the coming father of the Gaels. Such was the spirit of Míl, the crusader did not rest during the epic crossing of the nine waves, until his destiny was reached.
Our story begins far south, in the sunny Iberian peninsula, land of almonds, basil, bergamot orange, gooseberry, juniper, olive, orris, rosemary and thyme. Like great explorer or heroes of legend, the botanicals journeyed far from home, out into the wild Atlantic and were carried northwards to Ireland, green island of mist and rain.
After man adventures, the botanicals reached the Irish shore., where they were carefully gatherer up. They were placed in fine Irish gin to recover, which they did- slowly suffusing the pure spirit with zesty, fragrant southern sunshine.
