Hendrick's Gin 0,70Lt. 44%

Hendrick's Gin is produced in the Ayrshire region of Scotland, starting from two anambics, Carter-Head and Bennett Still: the first one created in 1948 and manufactured by John Dore & Co .; the second still oldest, drawn in 1860 by London-style masters. In 1966, Charles Gordon, the patron of William Grant & Sons, bought these two collector coins without knowing exactly future use. In 1988, Charles Gordon met Lesley Gracie, launching a challenge on how to use these two anamys to create a gin that could integrate an unusual mixture over the common. It took 11 years and several experiments from plants, seeds, roots and fruits before arriving at a formula that could satisfy Mr. Gordon's request: 11 botanical species, some classic and some absolutely extravagant for the category - Achilles, Coriander, Juniper, Chamomile, Cumin Seeds, Cubes Berries, Elderberry Flower, Orange Peel, Lemon Peel, Angelic Root, Iris Root - and a final infusion of damask rose petals and cucumber. Manufactured in small batches (450 liters per liter), iconically served with tonic and the typical slice of cucumber, Hendrick's Gin is simply unusual, not for everyone.
