Launched in late 2016 by the Elgin-based Moray Distillery (founded by Jill Brown, who previously founded the Berry Good range of liqueurs), Avva Scottish Gin is made using a combination of classic gin botanicals as well as botanicals foraged in Speyside and the Highlands. These include dandelion, mint, red clover, nettle and Rowan berries.
Orange and lime peels arrive first on the nose, but are quickly backed up by refreshing, vegetal herbs. A crackle of peppery juniper lasts throughout.
Second bottle purchased (first was direct from the distiller at a show) I’m so pleased MoM stock it. Definitely a good buy.
Fantastic product and really friendly staff that go above and beyond to make sure customers are satisfied.
Premium quality Gin, a good tonic ( Fever Tree, Fentimans, Walter Gregory's ) and a slice of red apple is an excellent G&T.
Smooth tasting Gin, very nice indeed. Try it with ginger ale and a slice of lemon. Looking forward to tasting their Navy Strength when it is available.
This is a fantastic gin. The flavour is clearly gin, tried this with Walter Gregor Tonic or Franklins, slices of lime or red apple - very moorish, London dry gin. Really easy drinking, not overly floral nor too citrusy. The genuine story behind this brand & Gin just adds more depth, is a genuine Small Batch. Look forward to receiving more from this company
