Scilly Island Atlantic Strength Gin

The bouquet shows pleasing forward juniper, with savoury herbal notes of dill and fresh fennel, closing with cedar wood. Smooth and rounded on the palate with vibrant fresh mint and fennel, then a spicy warmth of cardamom and pepper, closing with hints of soft citrus sweetness. The finish is long dry and warming.

The inspiration for our gin recipe dates back to 1665 when the survivors of a ship, wrecked around Bishop Rock, were rescued by bold crewmen in pilot gig boats from this island, St Mary’s. Part of that ship’s rich cargo was pepper from Java for the Spice Trade, and so pepper is one of the 6 main botanicals (reflective of the oarsmen) plus juniper (the cox to lead) that make up our bold, vibrant Island Gin. The sea surrounding us supplies our Island’s water and features in every bottle of our gin, so you experience…. a little bit of Scilly in every sip!
