Outlander's Sam Heughan has managed to capture (and distil) the essence of Scotland's rugged landscapes with this addition to his Sassenach spirits range – Wild Scottish Gin! This London dry style gin is distilled with an array of foraged botanicals from the Dumfries and Galloway region of Scotland, where Heughan grew up.
A core of Scottish juniper is supported by rhubarb, heather, pine resin, bramble leaf, blaeberry, crabapple, and toasted oats to create a well-balanced classic that'll shine in a trusty G&T, garnished with a slice of apple. This gin has been winning awards left right and centre, including gold at the 2023 New York World Wine & Spirits Competition, the Singapore World Spirits Competition, the Spirits Business Autumn Tasting, and the Beverage Testing Institute.
Light apple and fruits balance delicate pine, bound by creamy, soft notes of soaked oats.
Juniper is balanced with notes of apple, rhubarb and some subtle floral notes from the heather.
Crisp, fresh fruits with some subtle underlying spice and earthy notes.
Sam entered the market with his gin, which coincided with my first experience with gin last year. I liked gin drinks after my last trip to Scotland in 2022 and here's a surprise ??. My favorite Scotsman and his gin ? Thank you Sam. My family brought me your gin from the US, and now it will be available closer. I hope that I will eventually get to Scotland and be able to buy it. Unfortunately, not available in Poland. ?
