Gin description
Organic blood orange, flowers, spice, berries, pine, drying resins and sweetness fill the mouth. Rich and unbelievably complex, it transcends expectations of a gin. The sheer quantity of botanicals in the completed recipe fills our still, appropriate as the still house is a converted lean to greenhouse. These are either macerated directly for 40 hours or suspended above for a gentle liberation of aroma through the rising steam. This only allows a limited number of bottles per batch, nothing added but local water. Formerly named after the common name for Arctia majus, it seemed a fitting tribute to name it after that beautiful day flying moth of the same name. In 2018 we celebrated the outstanding impact it had made with our friends worldwide, by evolving the name to Garden Swift, combining the original name and the stunning golden swift moth. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.
