Northwest Passage Expedition Gin

Gin description

This amazing gin was developed to help fund a team of adventurers and ocean rowers aiming to be the first to row the Arctic's Northwest Passage, known as the Last Great First, and to support marine conservation through a partnership with Big blue Ocean Cleanup. Flavoured with botanicals from the shores of Orkney and the Hudson bay, this true Spirit of Adventure recognises the deep historical links between the Orkney Islanders and the Northwest Passage. The unique flavours are drawn from Sugar Kelp, Angelica Archangelica, Ramanas Rose, and Burnet Rose. The Angelica root adds a hint of sweetness that is balanced by a subtle, floral note from the roses. The addition of lemon peel and calamondin brings the bright, citrus notes to the gin and the sugar kelp, a seaweed, adds a mild saltiness to the palette, connecting the spirit to the sea. Water used comes from the same well used by the legendary explorers Captain James Cook and Sir John Franklin - just one sip will transport you back to the Age of Discovery. It is truly the adventurous spirit.
