Defiance Gin - Strawberry 70cl / 40% abv
Distinctive handpicked botanicals are collected by our expert forager.
Celebrating Britain at its summer finest, our strawberry gin uses our signature botanicals together with British strawberries to create a delicious ‘fun in the sun’ gin. With just an added touch of sugar (3%) to lift the strawberry flavour.
Still a fantastic ‘real gin’, foraged, distilled and bottled in the U.K. 14 Botanicals create a sublime smooth and more-ish gin. A wonderful depth of flavour with an earthy backbone giving way to fresh citrus and wonderful notes of anise
A rare find these days, genuinely hand crafted in small batches, serving suggestions included on the collar tag.
We also adore the bottle..... A gorgeous gift and a must have on any gin enthusiasts shelf.
Notes from the Distiller...…..
"We steep and boil wild Speyside Juniper, Sitka Tips (Douglas Fir First Growth), Whalley Lancs, Sweet Flag (Tangerine Root), Spotborough S.Yorks and Sweet Cicely (anise), Calder Valley W.Yorks.
To this we crafted rich, high quality London Dry botanicals Juniper, Coriander Seed, Cinnamon Quills, Orange Peel, Lemon Peel, Cardoman, Nutmeg, Myrrh Gum, Orris Root, Angelica Root
We distil the ingredients separately to extract the best characteristics from each botanical. The wild foraged botanicals are steeped overnight for a minimum 12 hours in 96% alcohol and then boiled (steep & boil method).
The other sourced botanicals are then ‘vapour infused’ to extract the finer more delicate, light volatiles. This gives Defiance its wonderful and unique depth of flavour. An earthy backbone gives way to fresh citrus and wonderful notes of anise.
