Pickerings Gin 1947 (700ml)

Description

Herbal, Lime, Spice

The nose offers dried lime peels at first, though this soon develops a core of chopped green herbs. Soft and creamy to the initial taste, followed by cinnamon, clove and fruit notes resulting in an almost mince pie-like flavour profile. Cardamom, coriander, clove and cinnamon spice lead to a crisp, refreshing and long finish.

Hand crafted at Summerhall Distillery – the first exclusive gin distillery to be established in Edinburgh for over 150 years. Spicier, sweeter and more intense, it’s a decadent trip back to the last days of the Raj, the 1947 edition is made precisely to our original recipe, as it was written down in Mount Mary, Bombay, in 1947. Here the botanical mix includes cinnamon, which adds a decidedly warming and spicy kick to the spirit.

Recommended serve: with ice, tonic and a wedge of orange. For a more warming drink, substitute tonic water for ginger ale.
