This evening we feature Rock Rose Old Tom Gin with

This evening we feature Rock Rose Old Tom Gin with Pink Grapefruit. A delicious zesty twist on their stunning original release.
The creation of Dunnet Bay Distillers who are located in Caithness with stunning coastline as a backdrop.
Founded and created by Husband and Wife team Martin and Clare Murray their inspiration was The ‘Rhodiola Rosea’ or Rock Rose, famed for its rarity and health benefits, it was once sought after by the Vikings for its strength and vitality. It’s fame hasn’t gone unnoticed, it’s key botanical in Dunnet Bay Distillery’s equally famous gin, Rock Rose. It is important to Martin & Clare Murray that their creations have true provenance of the area in which it has made.
The Pink Grapefruit Old Tom gin derives from their popular ‘Design a Rock Rose Gin Label’ competition of 2016, which was released as the wonderful citrus-based Artists’ Edition.
Such was its popularity they decided to bring it back as a fresher version for 2019 using organic pink grapefruit peel, all lovingly peeled by the distillery team! These are added to the botanical basket and vapour infused along with all of the traditional gin botanicals. It is then lightly sweetened with muscovado sugar.
The result is a beautifully balanced Old Tom Gin with fresh zesty notes that makes for a stunning G & T serve.
We paired with Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water and grapefruit. All served in the quite frankly stunning Rock Rose Gin glasses.

This evening we continue with our Four Pillars gin

This evening we continue with our Four Pillars gin journey, this time featuring their acclaimed Olive Leaf Gin. A gin that sparks dreams of sunny Mediterranean climes and that is also bursting with complex flavour.
The combination of gin and olives is one that has been explored and enjoyed by many a gin lover. Whilst this flavour combination lends itself perfectly to a Classic Gin & Tonic, it is also a perfect cocktail gin, think a Dirty Martini.
It was a trip to the olive groves of northern Victoria that confirmed it for the Four Pillars Team that this would be a gin to create.
They visited Cobram Estate in Boundary Bend during olive harvest and realised that olive oil could be a brilliant botanical alongside dried olive leaves.
A whole year of trials commenced before the recipe was finalised. As always nothing short of perfection for Four Pillars.
The botanical blend consists of Olive Leaf, Lemon, Bay Leaf, Olive Oil, Macadamia Nut, Rosemary, Grapefruit, Juniper, Lemon Myrtle, Coriander, Lavender & Orris Root. The aroma on the nose is nothing short of divine. It’s rich with the Olive standing proud alongside a lighter floral scent. When tasting neat the olive flavour is a taste to behold. It’s beautifully balanced and takes you on a flavour journey.
Served as a Gin & Tonic, perfectly paired with Fever-Tree Indian Tonic Water, lemon, rosemary and a green olive this is a bright, savoury and tasty serve.

Bravo Four Pillars Gin, we’ve coveted this new creation for quite some time and of course, it didn’t disappoint. Next is a Dirty Martini…

NEW GIN ON THE BLOCK…. Shivering Mountain Gin

NEW GIN ON THE BLOCK…. Shivering Mountain Gin

Shivering Mountain Gin is located in the heart of the UK’s Peak District National Park. They sit in the beautiful Hope Valley, overlooked by MAM TOR, the majestic peak known locally as Shivering Mountain.

Embracing their inner-ginologists, they’ve harnessed the landscape, the micro-climate, fresh spring waters and natural botanicals to capture the beauty and spirit of the Peak District in a bottle. The range includes their Premium Dry Gin, with juniper, Seville orange and fruity notes from sloes and bilberries. These are combined with the lighter, sweeter, floral tones from gorse and heather to create a complex gin with a long but slightly spicy finish thanks to the cardamom. The range also includes their Premium Pink, which focuses in on pink grapefruit.

The bottle has been lovingly created, with the lines and shimmer recreating the natural landscape which they take inspiration, and the bottle base paying homepage to MAM TOR aka Shivering Mountain.

It’s rather special if we do say so ourselves. Now available at www.thegintomytonic.com/store

We love a good #cocktail, so we just had to share

We love a good #cocktail, so we just had to share this ginspired recipe brought to us by the lovely people at Crossbill Distilling.

Adopting botanical simplicity, but not forgoing flavour, Crossbill Gin uses only two botanicals; Scottish Juniper & Rosehip. It’s another favourite discovery of ours, making a rather mean G&T and excellent Negroni.

This particular recipe (as pictured) is a Proseccagroni. It uses core ingredients found in your classic Negroni, but turns it on its head with the addition of Prosecco. Much like a mad scientist in a lab, it’s so much fun experimenting with ingredients at home!

- 25ml Crossbill Gin
- 25ml Campari
- 25ml Vermouth Rosso

Stir over ice, before adding to a glass on the rocks. Top up with Prosecco and a scope of Lemon Sorbet.

Inspired from the marine environment of the New So

Inspired from the marine environment of the New South Wales coastline, Manly Spirits Australian Dry Gin is a sensory journey representative of its geography. Capturing the harmony between carefree beach life and urban sophistication, their entire range (Australian Dry Gin, Coastal Citrus and Barrel Aged) all feature a selective blend of sustainable foraged marine botanicals and use only the purest Australian wheat spirit.

Founders David and Vanessa first discussed the possibility of owning their own distillery whilst driving through the hills on Tasmania in late 2015. Following extensive gin research, the pair committed to their plan and made their dreams come true with Manly Spirits Co, launching in April 2017.

Their Australian Dry Gin (pictured) includes botanicals such as Anise Myrtle, Finger Lime, Juniper, mountain pepper leaf, Orange and sea lettuce (yes, sea lettuce is a thing!). On the nose it’s full of fruity pepper notes, juniper and delicate citrus but there’s a promise here that more is to come. On the palate beautiful citrus greets the tounge, accompanied by eucalyptus. Soft spice and pepper make themselves known and there is a solid juniper core. Savoury notes, contrast with the citrus and juniper, and the finish is long, lingering and complex. It’s a battle of the senses, offering herbaceous, floral and juniper, with more subtle citrus, spice and heat, but ultimately delivering the sensory journey that was hinted early on. If you are wondering what sea lettuce tastes like, then you can thank it for the savoury character of this gin! It’s tastefully executed, bringing a fresh drinking experience in certain ways, yet still being relatable in others. #thegintomytonic

Blueberry Harrogate Gin....

Sweet blueberries are distilled with delicate botanicals including lavender and finished exclusively with Harrogate Spring Water. Cornflower petals help give our Blueberry Harrogate Gin its beautifully unique and subtle blue hue.

Mango, Ginger & Lime...

This special edition is from Thornbury based Bramley & Gage, and forms part of their award-winning 6 O’clock Gin range.

This latest edition joins their London Dry, Brunel, Sloe and Damson and sees them look to celebrated chef Romy Gill MBE to celebrate the unique flavours of India. To quote “Gin-lovers will appreciate the expression of flavours that instantly transport you to summers in India. I’ve been a fan of 6 O’clock Gin since I first served it at my restaurant, and together we’ve created a gin that will go down a treat.”

Together, they use herbs and spices commonly found in Indian cooking, and infuse the gin with the juice from the native mango. The natural sugars in the mango add a honey like sweetness, creating the perfect balance between rich fruity sweetness, reserved spice and savoury. The Mango in this gin is unmistakable, but it’s not sweet for sweet-sake, much like Indian cuisine theres light and shade in the flavours with sparks of citrus and underlying spice present throughout.

As a serve we pair this with Fever-Tree Indian or Fever-Tree Ginger Ale and fresh mango slices. And if you are coming to one of our Gin Festivals this year you may well find this behind our bars... 😉
