The Botanist Islay Dry Gin 0.7L 46% The history of The Botanist Islay Dry Gin The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is produced by the Scottish malt distillery Bruichladdich. Bruichladdich, which translates as beach corner, is located on the island of Islay, right near the Bowmore distillery on the western shore of Loch Indaal. Bruichladdich is the westernmost distillery in Scotland. Bruichladdich was founded in 1881 by the brothers Robert William and John Gourlay Harve. They planned Bruichladdich as a commercial distillery from the outset, which meant that Bruichladdich was clearly different in terms of the quality of its equipment from other distilleries of the time, which often arose from converted farmhouses. After several changes of ownership, Bruichladdich was closed in 1994 by the then owner Whyte & Mackay, to the regret of many enthusiasts. It took six years until a new owner was found in the form of three partners from "Murray McDavid". The new team around Mark Reynier, Simon Coughlin and Gordon Wright was full of energy and surprised the market with original and innovative new bottlings. In addition to very heavily peated whiskies, this included The Botanist Islay Dry Gin! The production of The Botanist Islay Dry Gin It was Master Distiller Jim McEwan himself who came up with the idea of using Bruichladdich's "Ugly Betty" still to produce a spirit other than whisky. He chose gin because Islay has a very diverse flora and therefore offers the ideal conditions for the use of numerous fresh botanicals. Starting with a basic recipe of nine classic botanicals - violet root, spice bark, coriander seeds, juniper, etc. - various recipes with ingredients from Islay were tested. The result was is ultimately a recipe that combines the nine basic botanicals with 22 herbs and spices typical of Islay. After extensive maceration, the mixture for The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is distilled at low pressure for a painfully long 17 hours in the Lomond pot still "Ugly Betty". This very gentle distillation virtually "teases out" the aromas from the botanicals and gives The Botanist Islay Dry Gin its incomparable taste!

This is a good thing, because it is the only way to clearly perceive the very complex floral notes of The Botanist Islay Dry Gin. On the palate, The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is also "smooth and floral" and flatters the taste buds with notes of mint, thyme and camomile. The aftertaste of The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is very complex and long. When tasting The Botanist Islay Dry Gin, you can clearly see that it is a handcrafted product that is very different from the often industrially produced goods from the British mainland.
