History and production of Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin:
The term Bathtub Gin has a historical meaning that is quite controversial. In the 18th century, the so-called "Gin Craze", or gin epidemic, dominated public life in the United Kingdom. The average per capita consumption of gin was a dangerous 10 liters per year, including children, the sick and the elderly.
Triggered by an increase in beer tax, many citizens began to get drunk by making their own alcohol. In addition to pots, pans and tubs, bathtubs were also often used. These proved to be very practical, as they allowed large quantities of brandy to be mixed with all kinds of herbs and spices to mask the poor quality of the distillate. Gin consumption reached threatening levels and social life threatened to collapse. The Gin Act of 1751 finally introduced comprehensive measures which fortunately managed to contain the epidemic.
Today, the term "bathtub" refers to the artisanal production of spirits. Quality is now the main focus. The illegal and sometimes inedible products from the 18th century cannot be compared with this. Professor Ableforth produces his award-winning Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin himself and by hand in his small laboratory in the south of England. The highest quality gins are produced there in a specially constructed still. The "mad professor" is particularly proud of the cold compounding system he developed himself. There he extracts the aromas of his botanicals at low temperatures in a particularly gentle way and transfers them into the distillate. In addition to juniper berries and orange peel, these also include cinnamon, cloves, coriander and cardamom. The result is truly impressive.
This is also what the judges thought when they named Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin the best compound gin in the world at the 2014 World Gin Awards - a knighthood for Cornelius Ableforth.
Tasting of Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin:
In the nosing, Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin shows an impressive combination of strong juniper notes, fruity lemons and spicy herbs. All impressions are wonderfully integrated and extremely harmonious. The interplay of fruity sweetness and earthy-floral notes, which are created by cardamom and coriander, is particularly noteworthy here. This means that Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin goes its own way. Juniper is still the dominant aroma, but in contrast to standard London Dry Gins, the complexity is significantly increased by the spices and citrus fruits.
On the tongue, Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin then delights with an unexpected power and intensity. The impressions known from the nosing are further strengthened and developed in the mouth. The finish is long and warming, the Christmas spiciness fades into the background over time and is replaced by a pleasant sweetness and fruitiness.
Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin is one of the few gins that also works very well neat. Nevertheless, it is outstanding in a gin & tonic.
