This bespoke dry gin was crafted using ingredients foraged from an ancient Roman juniper forest.
Our good friends at The Secret Garden Distillery are the only people who have access to that 2 000-year-old wood and they must climb hundreds of metres to harvest the botanicals there. We’re keeping the unique recipe secret but we will tell you that as well as that rare and magical juniper the ingredients include coriander dandelion and Scots pine.
Deeply aromatic it opens with a big hit of comforting juniper instantly letting you know that this is proper gin. That’s followed by grass white pepper crisp mountain air and pine that evokes the nostalgia of collecting the Christmas tree. The palate is silky smooth and full-bodied displaying notes of pine needles lemon zest savoury olive oil cracked black peppercorns and summer berry sorbet. Despite the higher-than-average ABV there’s zero burn. Combine that with the rich mouthfeel and you have the perfect Martini gin. It also makes a fabulous G&T (especially with Harvey Nichols Classic Tonic Water) or if you’re looking for cocktail inspiration consider a Left Bank Martini (made with St-Germain Chablis and dry vermouth) or quite an alpine-feeling Negroni on account of all that conifer tree influence.
In 2012 The Secret Garden Distillery was no more than a derelict plot of land at the foot of the Pentland Hills on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Now it’s a verdant oasis home to over 600 different kinds of plants and some of the world’s most exciting gins. They create sustainable spirits that are deeply rooted in nature and have a minimal impact on the environment. All the botanicals used from the juniper to the signature flowers and herbs are tended by hand using no chemicals or fertilisers whatsoever before being hand-picked air dried and lovingly infused. There are no added sugars artificial colourings flavourings or additives; this is gin as nature intended.
