Dry Gin - The Classic Mixing Spirit!

Whitley Neill Handcrafted Dry Gin 1.0L 43%

Harahorn Orange Dry Gin 0.5L 42% Det Norske Distillery The Det Norske Distillery was founded in 2011 by Odd J. Nelvik and Stig Bareksten. At first, both wanted to create 'only' a milder aquavit by letting the distillate mature in barrels. In 2014, the founders' first product, 'Arvesølvet Aquavit', was released. After the merger in 2014 with Puntervold AS and Agder Brenneri, more and more products were added to the portfolio, which is probably also due to the resulting collaboration with Ole Puntervold, a pioneer of Norwegian spirits production. Orange Dry Gin The Norwegian distillery's newest product is Orange Dry Gin. Its taste focuses on citrus fruits, making it a wonderful gin for summer. Oranges, lemons and limes, as well as rhubarb, are used here, among other things, and provide a wonderfully fresh, fruity and slightly bitter aroma with a pleasant acidity. But spices are also a must in a gin. Master Blender Jon Bertelsen opted for a fascinating selection of iris and caraway, and supplemented these with pepper, watercress, juniper and cinnamon.

Roku Japanese Craft Gin 0.7L 43% Roku Gin from Japan belongs to one of the world's largest spirits companies, Beam Suntory, and has only been on the market since summer 2017. Despite its young age, Roku Gin has already established itself well. The name 'Roku' can be translated into German as the number six and in this case refers to six important Japanese botanicals. In addition to the usual botanicals, exactly 6 of the 14 used are regional herbs, spices and plants. So what is typically Japanese for Europeans and absolutely cannot be missing? Cherry blossoms and green tea. These are exactly the ingredients used in their pure form. Cherry blossoms and leaves and refined green Gyokuro and Sencha tea. There is also Japanese pepper and yuzu, a special citrus fruit that is very common in Japan. This combination has the following taste: Juniper clearly defines the fine bouquet and is initially accompanied by cone-like aromas on the nose, but the other botanicals are not neglected here either. However, you never have the feeling that you are being overwhelmed with aromas, rather each individual aroma flows gently into the next. Coriander and yuzu are the two aromas that most clearly support the juniper aroma.

Cape Fynbos Gin Citrus Edition Miniature 0.05L 43% South Africa This South African gin is a top product among the gin varieties. It is distilled four times in small batches in small copper stills in collaboration with the Wilderer Distillery in Paarl. Premium juniper berries and 33 other botanicals are added to the base alcohol. They all come from the area and are partly native plants that are hand-picked. The Fynbos vegetation is one of the best known places for which the Cape region is world-famous. And the water that is used to mix it to drinking strength also comes from the surrounding region, the Franschhoek Mountains, and is pure mountain spring water. Cape Finbos Gin Citrus Edition Miniature The basis of the Citrus Edition is the already well-known Cape Fynbos Gin. This is then macerated for two weeks with the peels of five different citrus fruits. A complex aroma is created and moves between herbal aromas, oranges and spice notes such as cloves and white pepper, rounded off by the sweet taste of honey. Comes in a beautiful miniature bottle for tasting.

Harahorn White Lemon Gin 0.5L 42% Harahorn White Lemon Gin is a special edition. This gin has a citrus flavor with fresh mint, cardamom, juniper and liqueur as the main characters. Another great product from Norway,

Hendrick's Gin Amazonia Limited Release 1.0L 43.4% Hendrick's Gin It is thanks to master distiller Lesley Gracie that we can now enjoy an excellent limited release gin from Hendricks. Her three-week trip to the Amazon rainforest in Venezuela gave her enough incentive to bring the taste of the rainforest to your home. During this time she lived with a local tribe who taught her everything about local plants and fruits. In the Amazonia limited releases, Gracie combines the original Hendricks recipe for cucumber-floral gin with the typical aromas of the rainforest. By purchasing a bottle of Hendricks' Limited Release Gin, you are supporting the One Tree Planted initiative, where for every bottle of Henderiks Amazonia Limited Release Gin purchased, a tree is planted to reforest the Amazon rainforest in Peru. Tasting tip: This fruity gin is ideal for making some cocktails. We have a suggestion here: Why not try a 'Tropical Fizz'? Put the Amazonia Gin in a shaker with pineapple juice, sugar syrup and a splash of lime juice, shake vigorously and pour into a prepared glass with ice cubes, then top up with tonic or soda water. Garnish with the typical cucumber slice or a pineapple leaf if you like. Cheers!

Tinte Gin 0.2L 47% The company Edelranz has brought out a very interesting gin. The taste combines the whole world in one bottle. Juniper from Europe, lemon balm petals from America, red sandalwood and bucco leaves from Africa, acacia flowers and lemon aspen leaves from Australia and finally licorice root from Asia. Juniper berries definitely set the tone. The taste also focuses on citrus and floral notes. With the Tinte Gin you combine the whole world in one bottle. Incidentally, this bottle is cubic and is very reminiscent of a small, old inkwell, which is absolutely fitting alongside the dark blue color of the gin. According to the manufacturer, the gin gets this color in a purely natural way after the distillation process. You can enjoy this gin neat with a little ice. If you mix it with a little tonic water, the distinctive blue gin turns from dark blue to pink.

Xoriguer Gin Mahon Miniature 0.05L 38% The national drink of Menorca Anyone who has ever visited the Spanish holiday island of Menorca will know that you can't avoid this typical Menorcan drink. What exactly is this great national drink that everyone is talking about? Gin! Gin? That is certainly something that one or two people are asking themselves at this point. But you read that correctly. The key word is: British influences. And it quickly becomes clear that gin is not completely out of the question. The history of Menorca Gin goes back to 1708, when British naval officers occupied the island. Of course, they brought a certain supply of the British national drink with them, but this ran out faster than supplies could arrive. Locals on the Balearic island agreed to support the officers and make their own gin locally. Juniper berries were imported from Great Britain, now all that was missing was a base. Since Menorca was heavily involved in wine production, they tried using a wine distillate instead of the usual grain distillate. By adding some local herbs and spices, they managed to create their own gin. This was ultimately so popular that an entire brand, 'Xoriguer', was developed from it. The rights to the name were secured, so that today Xoriguer Gin is the only gin with a designation of origin alongside 'London Dry Gin'! The distillery is still in the hands of the Xoriguer family, who still produce it according to the original recipe from the 18th century. Exactly which spices, herbs or other ingredients are used to refine the wine is still a well-kept family secret. Menorcan taste The presentation in traditional jug-like bottles alone gives one hope of Balearic flair. And it really has a lot to offer: it is a tangy, fresh gin, which is surprisingly restrained with fruity notes. A piquant, very unique spice can be discovered. For the comparatively little fruitiness, there are clearly floral notes of violets. It always seems fresh with woody notes, which probably come from being stored in oak barrels. Everyone is recommended to taste this very own gin neat first, because with its multifaceted and mild bouquet it is also very convincing. Of course, with its great aromas it also goes well in cocktails and even in a martini it looks good.

Nordic Spirits Lab Gin 0.5L 41% Nordic Spirits – the special gin Nordic Spirits Lab Gin is bursting with Nordic influences. What also sets it apart is that this gin is a hybrid gin. Here, gin is combined with aquavit. With the idea of reinventing the drinking experience, the original idea was to only refine the gin with the special ingredients of the Scandinavian aquavit, but then ultimately decided to combine both spirits. Nordic taste A very soft, restrained aroma on the nose. It spreads out very gently and mildly, with juniper notes coming through, followed by slightly floral aromas. However, something spicy also comes along in the background. The taste ties in with the nosing, a very mild and soft gin. The floral bouquet is also recognizable here. Some fruitiness from citrus fruits comes through. After a few minutes in the mouth, a pleasant, subtle spiciness from the various spices develops: caraway, dill and coriander primarily. In summary, it can be said that with the NSL Gin, a special Scandinavian gin is conquering the market. Like most gins, the Nordic Spirits Lab Gin is also suitable for gin and tonics. Due to its subtle alcohol taste, it can also be drunk neat.

Tenu Le Bon Tikka Barrel Aged Gin 0.5L 50.5%

Harahorn Cask Aged Gin 0.5L 41.7% Det Norske Brenneri The production facility of the Det Norske distillery is in Grimstad in southern Norway. After the Norwegian production monopoly was lifted in 2015, the distillery was the first private distillery in Norway. The distillery got off to a great start with its craft gin in 2015. For more than a year, the master distillers experimented with different berries and plants to get what they consider to be the perfect recipe for their craft gin. Since fruits, berries and herbs taste so particularly good in hardly any other place in the world due to the special climate in Norway, Harahorn Gin's contain four regional ingredients from land and sea: juniper from Røros, blueberries from Nordmarka on the outskirts of Oslo, rhubarb from Grimstad and seaweed from the city. Harahorn Hunters and miners have sworn they have seen it for many centuries. In North American folklore, this creature is called the Jackalope. In Norway, it is known as the Harahorn. The classic Harahorn Gin uses juniper berries as well as blueberries, rhubarb, bladderwrack, marjoram and angelica from the Norwegian wilderness. This edition of Harahorn Gin has also been aged for a year in Oloroso sherry casks. This creates a premium gin with smoothness and elegance, specially developed for classic drinks.

Cape Fynbos Small Batch Gin 0.5L 45% The spirit of the Cape The restaurateur and master distiller Helmut Wilderer, who comes from Baden, emigrated to South Africa in 1994 to start his fruit brandies. There he was the first to receive a license to distill grappa and eau de vie and since then has received several awards every year for handmade pomace and fruit brandies. Creativity and quality are Wilderer's top priorities. So he naturally finds enough incentives in the Cape region, which is one of the world's largest fruit growing areas, to meet his demands. The brandies are triple distilled in a state-of-the-art facility with a capacity of over 700 liters. Produced in harmony with nature Wilderer sometimes uses unique wild herbs for his spirits that are completely unknown to us in Europe. These include, for example, 'Wild Dagga' (also called wild cannabis, THC free!), 'Buchu', a mint plant, 'Honeybush', and 'Devil's Claw'. The Cape Fynbos Gin contains a total of 33 botanicals from the Fynbos region, which is known worldwide as one of the most species-rich botanical regions. They are all grown sustainably and harvested by hand. Vineyards are usually found next to the Fynbos region, so it is only logical that the base alcohol of this gin is based on white grapes. In order to achieve a perfect bond between the aromas, the plants, herbs and spices are macerated before distillation. The taste A well-rounded taste in the mouth that fills you with pleasant warmth. Despite its alcohol content of 45% vol., the gin is still rather mild. You can taste deep, complex herbal aromas and a hint of orange zest. The mixture of the various herbs makes the Cape Fynbos Gin almost indescribable and you should just get an idea of these extraordinary aromas for yourself. The best way to enjoy this fine brandy is of course neat and on ice, but it can also be mixed well with a tonic or something else.

Elg Gin No.4 0.5L 46.5% ELG GIN – high-quality gin from Denmark High-quality gin does not necessarily come from England. In the wake of the current gin wave, excellent distillates from Germany and Spain, among others, have been able to assert themselves in the highly competitive market. A gin from Denmark has also recently caused a stir. It is the ELG GIN, which is produced by the Stone Grange Craft Distillery in the beautiful surroundings of Lake Esrom, north of Copenhagen. The special thing about the ELG GIN recipe is that it is made with just three botanicals, which we will go into in more detail later. The individual botanicals are macerated separately in pure wheat spirit, which is then distilled separately in an advanced form of the column still process. In this way, it is possible to produce distillates of unique purity and elegance and to keep the aroma and the same intense taste constant in each batch, regardless of fluctuations in the raw botanicals which, due to nature, can never be completely avoided over the years. ELG GIN is produced in small batches of just 1,250 bottles each, with each label containing the batch and bottle number and signed by Master Distiller Henrik Elsner. The botanicals used As already mentioned, only three botanicals are used to make ELG GIN. In addition to the classic juniper, these are the also frequently used coriander AND the very atypical ingredient carrot. As far as we know, no other producer uses carrot as a botanical, although its addition provides a pleasant earthy note in the aftertaste. ELG GIN No. 4 ELG GIN No. 4 also contains an extract from black carrots as a special ingredient. This is achieved by soaking black carrots in 50% vol. pure wheat alcohol for three days. This produces an extract that not only contains the diverse aromas of the black carrot, but also the anthocyanins that occur naturally in the black carrot, which give it its intense pink-red color. If you mix ELG GIN No. 4 with tonic water or serve it as a martini cocktail, the drink will take on a pleasant pink color. A very unusual gin that will give friends and acquaintances some wow moments.

Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin 0.5L 43.3% The story of Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin For several years now, one man has been causing a stir in the spirits scene. His name: Cornelius Ampleforth. Ampleforth, generally known as the "Mad Professor", began producing extraordinary spirits in his own home at an early age. At some point he decided to turn his hobby into a profession and founded his own small spirits factory in autumn 2011.The aim of the factory is to use artisanal methods to bring long-forgotten spirits back to life or to create new, innovative products. Cornelius Ampleforth only uses high-quality basic ingredients, which he selects himself. The production of Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin The basis for the Cask-Aged Gin is Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Bathtub Gin. Like almost all Ampleforth products, this is produced in small batches of just 30-60 bottles. This corresponds roughly to the quantities in which so-called Bathtub Gin was produced illegally during American Prohibition. The botanicals used by Professor Cornelius Ampleforth for the Bathtub Gin include juniper, coriander, cinnamon and orange zest. After the herbs and spices have been added to the high-quality neutral alcohol, the maceration is constantly monitored and its progress is continuously sensorially tested by Professor Ampleforth. The botanicals are removed at the best possible time and the Bathtub Gin is ready for the second step: storage in the barrel.Ampleforth uses very small barrels with a volume of just under 50 liters to store his Bathtub Gin. This means that the barrels have a large surface area compared to their volume. This means that the barrel releases more aromas in a shorter time and the Bathtub Gin already has fine notes of vanilla and caramel after a storage time of just three to six months. After the professor considers the Cask-Aged Gin to be perfect, it is bottled at a strong 43.3% ABV. The bottles of Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin are wrapped in brown paper and sealed with twine and black sealing wax. The taste of Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin On the nose, Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin has earthy juniper notes and hints of vanilla, butterscotch and dried herbs. On the palate, Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin is very rich and creamy. The aftertaste of Professor Cornelius Ampleforth's Cask-Aged Gin is long-lasting and characterized by citrus aromas. A breathtaking gin!

Bulldog Gin 1.0L 40% Bulldog Gin is a modern gin in impressive packaging that became a high-flyer in international bars immediately after its release. Bulldog London Dry Gin is a gin with unknown exotic notes that develop through the addition of the Chinese dragon eye fruit (a close relative of the lychee fruit!), poppy, lotus leaves, coriander, licorice and lavender. Bulldog Gin and its creation The history of Bulldog London Dry Gin is still relatively young. Nevertheless, it is very exciting. Bulldog London Dry Gin was first presented to the public in 2007. The company was founded shortly before by former investment banker Anshuman Vohra, who discovered his love of gin at a young age. Back then, his father always offered him a gin & tonic during conversations. Anshuman Vohra also used to travel a lot, so he was able to get to know a wide variety of tastes all over the world. He wanted to reflect these different taste impressions in the Bulldog London Dry Gin and, together with his master distiller, developed an unusual recipe with 12 different botanicals. The production of Bulldog Gin The Bulldog London Dry Gin is produced in an old English factory that has specialised in the production of gin for over 150 years. Only the best ingredients, selected according to strict quality criteria, are used in its production. The alcohol for the Bulldog London Dry Gin is made from the best east English wheat, which is distilled four times in copper stills after fermentation. The botanicals are then added to complete the Bulldog London Dry Gin. Of course, not all of the ingredients are known, but some ingredients stand out clearly alongside the classic juniper. These are the Chinese dragon eye fruit (longan fruit), lotus leaves and Turkish poppy seeds. The entire processing of the Bulldog London Dry Gin is vegan and kosher. Bulldog Gin in taste On the nose and palate, the Bulldog London Dry Gin shows clear notes of fresh herbs, citrus fruits and juniper. There are also other aromas that are rather unusual for the European palate and do not fit the image of a classic gin. But it is precisely these aromas that make the Bulldog London Dry Gin so interesting. The aftertaste of the Bulldog London Dry Gin is refreshing and spicy. In addition to pure enjoyment, the Bulldog London Dry Gin is also ideal as an ingredient in long drinks and cocktails. Recommended!

Nolet's Dry Gin Silver 0.7L 47.6% The history of Nolet's Dry Gin Silver The history of the Nolet family, which produces Nolet's Dry Gin Silver, goes back to 1691. That was when the Nolet distillery was founded, making it the oldest distillery in the Netherlands. For a long time, Genever, the national spirit of the Nollanders, was produced. Business was always good, but Genever consumption has fallen drastically in recent decades. The reason is that consumers are dying out, as young people prefer to enjoy spirits that reflect a certain lifestyle. The company is now in its tenth generation and managing director Carolus HJ Nolet had to rethink things. He then introduced Ketel 1 Vodka, which is now one of the best known vodkas on the market. After the great success of the vodka, the owners wanted to return to the company's roots and recently brought Nolet's Dry Gin Silver onto the market, which has its origins in classic genever. The production of Nolet's Dry Gin Silver Nolet's Dry Gin Silver is a London-style gin that is distilled in pot stills. This makes Nolet's Dry Gin Silver unique in the Netherlands. The botanicals used to make Nolet's Dry Gin Silver are also extremely untypical for a gin. In addition to the classic flavors such as juniper, licorice and citrus fruits, Turkish rose petals, white peach and raspberries are also used. With this new type of aroma, Nolet's Dry Gin Silver is clearly aimed at a new generation of drinkers who are looking for new tastes in classic spirits. The taste of Nolet's Dry Gin Silver The atypical botanicals naturally give Nolet's Dry Gin Silver a very special taste. On the nose, Nolet's Dry Gin Silver has a very floral smell and you can clearly detect fruity notes of raspberries and peaches. On the palate, Nolet's Dry Gin Silver initially seems quite strong due to its 47.6% vol., but then becomes very smooth and shows the aromas already known from the bouquet. The aftertaste is gentle and slightly sweet. Due to its overall lighter character, Nolet's Dry Gin Silver is ideal for classics such as the Martini Dry Cocktail. Its great fruit aromas come into their own particularly well in a Gin & Tonic! Anyone looking for a new kind of gin should definitely try Nolet's Dry Gin Silver!

Mayfair London Dry Gin An exclusive lifestyle is cultivated in the famous London district of Mayfair. The "savoir vivre" is lived and felt in noble gentleman's clubs, star restaurants and five-star hotels. In such elite circles, the right gin is of course a must.The Mayfair London Dry Gin offers everything you would expect from a high-class gin without being out of line in terms of price.

Oxley Dry Gin 1.0L 47% Oxley Gin is produced in a special cold distillation process in which the aromas are extracted from the botanicals at -5°C. The botanicals (e.g. vanilla, aniseed and meadowsweet) are macerated in high-quality neutral alcohol and then everything is placed under a high vacuum and cooled to temperatures below freezing. The reduced pressure causes the gin to evaporate and then condense again in a cold lance (-100° C). This process allows the aromatics to combine with the alcohol much more gently than would have been the case with another normal distillation.The bouquet clearly shows the freshness of the ingredients used and the palate also has the finest citrus and almond aromas, whose freshness is second to none. In the aftertaste you can notice the 47% vol. clearly lingers, which many gin lovers consider very positive. A truly exceptional gin!
