Launched in February 2022 by The Gin To My Tonic VIP GIN CLUB. Only £30 per bottle for VIP MEMBERS.

This London Dry Gin has a solid juniper backbone. Five traditional gin botanicals are distilled in a single shot method in Locksley’s Still Gladys.

What makes this gin incredibly special are the additional botanicals distilled individually in Locksley’s Rotovap Vacuum Still. The stars of the show are Nocerella Olives and Basil, both of which are recognizable, but neither overwhelms the gin.

The olive brings a lovely umami element, while the basil gives a delicate herbal, almost floral, flavour. The lemon peel, also vacuum distilled, acts like a bridge between the traditional and more modern botanicals.

The result is a beautifully balanced London Dry Gin that makes a wonderful G&T, but is also is begging to be shaken into a Basil Smash or stirred into a Dirty (or even Filthy) Martini.

ABV: 40%

Bottle Size: 70

Botanicals: Juniper, Coriander, Cassia, Angelica Root, Liquorice Root, Basil, Lemon Peel and Nocellara Olives
