Wall Mounted Gin Shelf

Product Information

Aviation is produced in Portland, Oregon, by House Spirits Distillery. It is distilled from neutral grain spirit with 100 percent rye base, an unusual beginning in the gin market. It's flavored with juniper, anise seed, Elettaria cardamom, coriander, lavender, sweet orange peel, and sarsaparilla. It, too, is slightly overproofed, bottled at 42 percent ABV (84 proof), so it's not as delicate as it's often made out to be.

When I first saw the Skagerrak Gin bottle, I was blown away by its beauty and simplicity. Named after the Skagerrak straight which runs between Denmark, Norway and Sweden, the gin is designed to characterise all three of the Nordic countries, with the gin made in collaboration with two of of the best bartenders from each country. The saffron also gives Nolet’s Reserve its slightly tinted amber coloring and warm, deep spice flavor. Unsurprisingly, it’s a gin with plenty of depth, balancing bitter notes like verbena with florals like Turkish rose and lavender. As with many of the gins on our list, it uses a mix of foraged and bought-in botanicals. But unlike of the Scottish gins we’ve mentioned here, it features parsnip in the mix! Other notable botanicals inlude wood sorrel, rhubarb and birch sap. Given the explosion in the Scottish gin industry recently, Crossbill is a relative veteran! Established in Aviemore, Crossbill Gin was launched in 2014, before moving their home to Glasgow, opening a gin school at Barras Art and Design (BAaD) in 2017.There is a beautiful gin inside this distinct green bottle with its red wax seal. Tanqueray's crisp, dry style is the benchmark for a London dry gin without any citrus in the botanicals. It is a standard to which all other gins are compared and contrasted and also sells for a reasonable price. As the citrus fades away there’s a gently warming spice and herbaceous finish. Bitter citrus lingers on the taste buds, should you be able to wait long enough before having another sip from your glass! There’s no doubt you’re drinking something special and it’s exactly the sort of flavour profile I love. As time had passed, the unassuming mini had made its way behind larger bottles in the cupboard and evaded my eye-line. And so then, with an 18 months unintentional hiatus (sorry Jenny!), it seemed I had some catching up to do with the teams ‘Clydesdale Gin’ then…

With huge thanks to Seb & Tony for my complementary bottle of their Science Project 6a London Dry Gin! With restrictions now easing, I can’t wait to head over to Derbyshire to see the eco-operation for myself. Malfy offers a variety of flavors, but the clear favorite is the Gin Con Limone. The brand uses coastal-grown Amalfi lemons and Sicilian varieties in its lemon-flavored gin, promising a taste of the sunshine in every sip. Navy Strength: Navy strength gin is the strongest at around 57% ABV. The name comes from the high-strength spirits distilled in the 18th century requested by the Royal Navy. However, the name itself was only coined in the 1990s as a marketing ploy to highlight high-strength spirits.

So to try the botanicals of Orkney is a rare treat and one for the gin connoisseurs out there. Gin is set apart from other spirits in a few different ways. For a start, it’s a spirit that can’t be aged, which is why most gins are clear. Generally speaking, only Genever is barrel-aged.

Hand-wrapped in paper, sealed with twine and wax, Ableforth’s Bathtub Gin is one of the more unique bottles on the market. Reminiscent of an old apothecary medicine bottle, its design takes inspiration from the prohibition era, said to have given rise to the term from which Bathtub Gin takes its name. Roku means “six” in Japanese: named as such because there are six very important botanicals in the gin. All sourced from Japan, the bottle offers a unique flavor on the market when mixed with another eight more traditional gin botanicals: juniper berry, coriander seed, angelica root, angelica seed, cardamom seed, cinnamon, bitter orange peel, and lemon peel. Working with specialist spirits branding agency Stranger & Stranger, they’ve come up with something which really encapsulates the stunningly rugged landscape of Harris. The ribbed turquoise bottle, reflecting the island’s crystal clear water. Unlike many other gin brands, Tanqueray keeps its botanical recipe a secret. However, it’s known to be made up of only four different components: juniper, coriander, angelica root, and licorice. It’s a gin that’s easy to drink and perfectly balanced, preferring to keep the crowd happy rather than bringing in any flavors too rogue.

It’s also one of the botanicals used in Brentingby Gin. It’s a huge favourite with gin fanatics since its launch in 2018, both for this beauty, as well as its somewhat flavoursome gin. Disclosure: free sample bottle previously provided to both From the Gin Shelf and Jenny in Brighton Lind & Lime Gin was launched in 2018 and its bottle has caused quite the stir. The gin’s story is centred around the port of Leith in Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital. The city has a long history with gin, as a key trading port with Europe. Upon arriving in the harbour, wines and spirits would be taken from their barrels and bottled. Thus, glass became produced in large quantities in the port.
