Lavender & Echinacea Secret Garden Gin 500ml

Add tonic to this Lavender & Echinacea Secret Garden Gin and watch a miracle of nature unfold. If ever a gin could cure what ails, it would be this one. The restorative qualities of lavender are combined with Echinacea, a cure-all remedy used by the Native Indians that is now thought to shorten the duration of the common cold and flu.

Husband and wife Hamish and Liberty Martin – a wine merchant with a diploma in Herbology and an ex-resource manager with a penchant for antiques – bought a derelict plot of land at the foot of the Pentland Hills on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Over several years they transformed that wasteland into The Secret Herb Garden, which is now home to over 600 herbs, a café, an educational space and a shop selling vintage furniture, fresh flowers, candles, honey and so much more. In 2016 they teamed up with London mixologist Steve Ross to create gins from nature’s bounty. The botanicals used, from the juniper and the angelica to the signature flowers, are hand-tended, handpicked, air-dried and lovingly infused.

Initially a faded Quink Ink blue, the heavily scented Lavender & Echinacea Secret Garden Gin will transform before your very eyes as you add tonic, into an effervescent lilac colour.
