The Botanist Islay Dry Gin 750ml

The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is a distinctive spirit from the Bruichladdich Distillery on Scotland's Isle of Islay. Crafted with 31 botanicals, including 22 hand-foraged local herbs and flowers, it reflects the island's rich biodiversity. The gin is produced through a slow, low-pressure distillation in a unique Lomond pot still, affectionately known as "Ugly Betty," allowing for the delicate extraction of flavors from the botanicals.

On the nose, it presents a complex bouquet of juniper, citrus, and floral notes. The palate is rich and mellow, with refreshing notes of citrus fruit, leading to well-integrated flavors of juniper, summer flowers, honey, and summer meadows. Hints of coconut and wild mint linger through the long, structured finish.

Bottled at 46% ABV, The Botanist is versatile, enhancing classic cocktails like the Martini and Negroni, while also being delightful neat or with tonic.

This gin embodies the spirit of Islay, offering a unique experience that captures the essence of its place of origin.
