From Brockmans distillery comes Brockmans Intensely Smooth Gin. Its unique selection of botanicals including Tuscan juniper berries, Bulgarian coriander, blueberries, blackberries and bittersweet Valencian orange peel are steeped in grain spirit. It is then distilled in a 100 year old copper still, with the final gin boasting, as its name may suggest, an intensely smooth profile. The moody and opaque bottle is somewhat alluring...
Try mixing up a Maratini with this delicious recipe below!
60ml Brockmans Gin
60ml Pink grapefruit juice
30ml Maraschino liqueur
7.5ml Lemon juice
7.5ml Sugar syrup
Add all the ingredients to a shaker filled with ice, and give it a good shake. Double strain into a chilled martini glass. Flambé* a strip of pink grapefruit peel over the glass and wipe the peel around the rim. Garnish with a slice of pink grapefruit or peg of citrus peel and enjoy!
*Hold a lit match a few inches above the glass. From a couple of inches away, squeeze the grapefruit peel towards the flame.
Fruity nose with hints of cooked fruit, strawberry, damson jam, hints of blossom and almond.
Nutty, fruity palate. Blueberries, juniper and soft aniseed notes.
Short, with liquorice root and herbs.
Tastes of artificial sweetener, blahh. If you like akcopops this may be for you.
Lovely gin best with fever tree ginger ale and a slice of orange think some people have been having the wrong mixers with it
Utter rubbish, not even a Gin! In simple terms of you want a sticky sweet distilled glass of Ribena then maybe this is your thing if you like actual Gin then steer clear of this
Gorgeous - this gin is unusual. It's got an orange twang - perfect served with a slice or red grapefruit rind and a few blueberries. Really perfect for Christmas.
I am a gin drinker and this is NOT gin! Do not make a martini with this unless you want a fruity liqueur type. I will stick with Bombay.
