Whitewood Dry Gin.

Whitewood Dry Gin.

£35.00

This spectacular dry gin was Whitewood’s first product - a first of many creative, botanical spirits they further seek to establish.

This superbly balanced gin balances citrus, spice and floral notes above a big juniper heart. An increased botanical weight gives presence and is finished with raw British Birch water to give a beautiful soft texture.

Each bottle sale contributes towards the Future Forest Company.

BALANCE OF FLAVOUR IS EVERYTHING

A carefully crafted balance between 12 different botanicals that perfectly compliment each other to stand over that classic juniper heart that gin is loved for.

CITRUS

Classic cutting citrus elements from lemon zest, fresh lemongrass and coriander seed.

SPICE

Deep, earthy flavours from black pepper, ginger, cassia bark and a gentle earthy anise hint from fennel pollen.

FLORA

A delicate mix of broad & softly flavoured elderflower & German chamomile on top of which lavender sits.

AFTER DISTILLATION, A FINAL SPIRIT ABV OF AROUND 78% IS LEFT

This would normally be diluted with filtered water to bring it down to your usual 38-40% drinking strength, but Whitewood went in search of an alternative found in the wilderness…

Birch Water

EVERY SPRINGTIME BIRCH TREES BEGIN TO MOVE THEIR SAP THROUGH THEIR ROOTS UP INTO THE TREE, KICKSTARTING A NEW GROWTH CYCLE.

WHITEWOOD USE THIS BEAUTIFUL NECTAR TO DILUTE THEIR YOUNG GIN SPIRIT DOWN TO 40%, BEFORE LETTING IT REST FOR A 4 WEEK PERIOD - ALLOWING ALL THOSE FLAVOURSOME ESSENTIAL OILS FROM THE BOTANICALS TO MARRY PROPERLY TO THE BIRCH SPIRIT AND MELLOW OUT NICELY.
