International Wine and Spirit Competition (IWSC) medal winner, July 2019
First we create our spirit from the finest Norfolk barley and then redistil to vapour infuse a basket of the finest botanicals, including juniper, citrus and with a nod to the Iceni - nettle.
This captures delicate flavours to create a fine London dry gin that can be sipped on its own or pairs beautifully with elderflower or aromatic tonic.
Why a blue bottle? In Iceni times, Caesar (the Roman invader) wrote that the Britons ‘dye their bodies with woad to produce a blue colour’. We colour our bottles blue in a fitting tribute to Boadicea – the head of the Iceni. We also adorn our bottles with pewter triple spirals; powerful symbols of the Iceni tribe.
Tasting notes: Herby citrus notes come through with the sweetness from the nettles first, then a nice punch of juniper with the spice coming through at the end. Very smooth and great to sip neat, or with just a splash of elderflower tonic. |
