Sipsmith Lemon Drizzle Flavoured Gin | 500ML

Detailed Description

Wait – what’s this? A dessert-ready gin reminiscent of a slice of lemon drizzle cake? It’s certainly an interesting idea, but let’s just see if it all adds up: Cake = Good Gin = Good. Hm. Everything seems in order so far. In the current climate of relentless gin-innovation, Sipsmith have only gone and used cake. Except, this is actually not a new concept. You can trace this style of gin back to the 1930s, and it enjoyed wide popularity in the 1950s and 60s. Sipsmith’s Lemon Drizzle Gin is very much a homage to this understated aspect of gin history. It relied on the combined expertise of Master Distiller Jared Brown and Head Distiller Ollie Kitson to create a suitable recipe, with multiple different lemon additions. You want dried lemon peels? It’s got ’em. Vapour-infused freshly peeled lemon? Got ’em. A fresh lemon twist for every bottle? Got ’em. Lemon verbena sourced directly from Master Distiller Jared Brown’s garden? You better believe its got ’em.
