Detailed Description
1881 Pavilion Pink Gin, a wee reminder of when Peebles Hydro was the hub for Scottish Tennis during the 1920s & 30s. The tennis pavilion stands proudly over the courts and still does today. Made using soft red berries which come to the fore without losing that juniper backbone. Using natural spring water fresh from the source in the hills behind in the Scottish Borders.
1881 Pavilion Pink Hydro Gin | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Nose is complex yet not overwhelming.
Palate: Tart floral notes and berry sweetness, with peppery juniper and lively fresh citrus.
Finish: Finish is lingering.
Distillery Information
Named after the year the Peebles Hydro was built, the 1881 Distillery and Gin School officially opened in October 2019. Originally a retreat for therapeutic water treatments, the hotel attracted visitors from around the world to come and alleviate themselves of their aches and woes. Built around the Shieldgreen spring, a private spring on the hotel’s estate, the fresh and mineral rich water was said to be ‘legendary’ for its therapeutic properties. Skip to present day and such claims of health benefits remain unfounded.
