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.
Lovely. Love the citrus crispy taste added With Mediterranean tonic very refreshing go for it ?Not finished the bottle yet but will be keeping it for my bar loaded with bottle lights to keep all my other empties company.
I love this gin! Being a Leither, it's great that my local gin is also my absolute favourite. It's so fresh and the bottle is gorgeous, I am hooked! I will definitely be buying another bottle once this one is finished, which won't be long!
Fantastic gin, lovely bottle!
I'm hooked!susan
Brought this bottle because I liked the design of the bottle, didn't realise how lovely the taste was, will be ordering another bottle, best gin I've tasted
