An extraordinary award-winning gin, made using the traditional method of Cold Compounding (or in layman’s terms – infusing). Very high quality copper pot-still spirit is infused with ingredients including juniper, orange peel, coriander, cassia, cloves and cardamom, with the length of the compounding period controlled entirely by periodic sampling.
The result is an extraordinary gin, lightly tinted by the botanicals, and with a flavour which is both bold, and perfumed all at once. Sure to be a hit with amateur and professional mixologists alike.
Packaged using brown paper, string and wax, the presentation puts us in mind of a Victorian apothecary!
Bathtub Gin & Tonic recipe:
- Fill a Highball glass with ice and pour 50ml Bathtub Gin
- Top with Fever-tree Mediterranean tonic water
- Garnish with a slice of orange to really bring out the flavour of orange peel
An initially juniper-rich bouquet is backed up with a solid backbone of rich grain spirit. Top notes of cardamom and orange blossom are evident with just a suggestion of cinnamon.
The initial focus is juniper, but the earthier botanicals make themselves known in the initial palate too. Mouthfeel is exceptionally viscous and creamy – this is good spirit, and it makes itself known.
The juniper subsides and gives way to cardamom and cinnamon, with a late resurgence from orange peel.
A most unusual, but quite entrancing gin.
A real treat for the palate. Layered and complex, the cardamom and orange really come through. Makes a refreshing and really delicious G&T, I could happily drink it all night.
Great gin Testing to see if I'm able to review gins after my other reviews weren't listed
I purchased this gin when Master of Malt could ship to the US. It is sublime and my favorite gin. Happy to see I can get it again!
My favourite gin ever!
