Made from single estate First Flush Darjeeling Tea, the springtime harvest which produces a delicate and floral Himalayan black tea, known to tea-lovers as the ‘Champagne of Tea’. Darjeeling Tea, the springtime harvest which produces a delicate and floral Himalayan black tea, known to tea-lovers as the ‘Champagne of Tea’. A citrus-forward gin with aromatic spices, peaches and apricots. The single pot still distillation creates a bolder style of gin that works fantastically in highball drinks such as G&T’s or Collins, and even more so in a Classic Martini with a twist of grapefruit.

The spirit is produced in a traditional alembic copper pot still to a classic London Dry Gin recipe, containing 10 botanicals including first-flush Darjeeling Tea. As well as subtle flavours of juniper, lemon, grapefruit, coriander, ginger, fennel, cardamom, cinnamon and angelica.

Gentle aromas of spice and citrus, overlaid with coconut and piney juniper. Coconut and grapefruit play an intriguing game on the palate, taking in turns to come to the fore, with refreshing grapefruit taking the final bow.
