The newest addition to the candle collection combines two vivid scents: tangy Irish rhubarb and crisp garden mint. The rhubarb evokes the tart-freshness of seasonal Irish produce, while the mint adds a cool, green, herb-garden note. Together, they make a scent profile that is simultaneously lively and refined — but polished enough for a luxury environment.
Connection to Kenmare & Culinary Tradition
Kenmare (Co. Kerry) is renowned for its gourmet food scene, high-end hospitality and five-star hotels. By choosing Irish rhubarb and mint, the candle draws directly from what the region does best: using fresh, local ingredients, deft flavour combinations, and a sense of place.
Given that I trained in both of the town’s two five-star hotels, this scent becomes a personal nod to my formative years in hospitality: the crisp linen of a luxury suite, the fresh herbs in a kitchen garden, the seasonal produce served in fine dining. It’s not just a fragrance — it’s a memory, a sensory tie to the exceptional standards and service I experienced and trained in.
