“This is a hyper-local product which makes an active contribution to biodiversity – worlds away from the industrial alcohol bought in by most distillers. From mother’s ruin to saviour of the planet.” – Lucy Siegle The Guardian and Observer
The Oxford Artisan Distillery’s Oxford Rye Organic Dry Gin is crafted using juniper coriander angelica root orris root lemon peel orange peel bitter orange peel nutmeg cubeb liquorice root meadowsweet and angelica seed. Those botanicals would normally be enough to give a gin a fairly healthy wallop of flavour. However this pioneering distillery have also used a base of 100% organic rye spirit. Now when you think about the peppery spiciness rye whisky has compared to its barley counterpart it becomes clear that this is going to be a gin with a pretty full-on flavour. But what we love about it the most is the richness unctuosity and syrupiness that they’ve achieved. That mouthfeel makes for the most incredible Martini.
The Oxford Artisan Distillery opened its doors in the summer of 2017 and unbelievably it marked the first legal distillation in the city’s history. The team are fascinated by heritage grains sustainable farming and a grain-to-glass ethos. They’re not interested in homogenous commercial bought-in-bulk seeds grown in the opposite of a natural ecosystem. So they took influence from wheat and rye discovered in Medieval thatched roofs which lead them to discover what would have been grown in the local area during ancient times. They then work with organic farms that use no pesticides fungicides chemical fertilisers or manure and who undersow their crops with clover. As a result the fields are brimming with wildflowers insects birds and biodiversity. Now that’s an eco-friendly spirit that this country can be very proud of.
