The first tipple to come from Edinburgh's Port of Leith Distillery has arrived in the shape of Lind & Lime Gin! The name is inspired by Dr. James Lind of Edinburgh, who conducted one of the first clinical trials aboard the HMS Salisbury. In these trials, he noted that the scurvy patients eating citrus fruits were showing good signs. Hence the addition of lime within this gin. To balance the powerful citrus freshness, the distillers also used pink peppercorn alongside five other botanicals (including juniper) to create the recipe.
Bright citrus, fresh and authentic. Juniper is oily and subtly spicy, bolstered by pepper and cardamom warmth.

Wow what a difference from blue sapphire. Bought 1st from duty free. Great quality taste with juniper flavour.
I was very disappointed by this gin. I find the palate dominated by cucumber, backed up by black pepper, and as I don't like cucumber, this is not for me. Citrus? Didn't get it.
Makes for a decent G&T, a good all rounder. Bottle is beautiful.
This is such a delicious gin with a rounded, juicy citrus flavour. I'm on my second bottle for myself after learning about it a couple of months ago and have bought two other bottles as gifts. It goes beautifully with Fever Tree Aromatic Tonic, as it bolsters the spicy notes of the gin.
Lovely gin - refreshing, crisp and wonderfully balanced. Works excellent in a gin & tonic!
