Released in late 2015, Hippocampus Gin is created using the help of one-shot method and is hand-bottled in small batches. It is a traditional style gin with superb juniper character and subtle flavours.
The botanicals are macerated overnight to ensure the spirit is infused with plenty of flavour and then gently distilled in a custom-made copper still. The gin is left unfiltered using the best of the ‘heart’ spirit to ensure the end results a well-balanced gin with a smooth mouthfeel and a superb finish.
The distiller simply adds purified water before bottling by hand and leaving it to rest.
Tasting notes: A dry gin with superb juniper character and subtle flavours from botanicals including orange and lemon peel, coriander and cubeb pepper.
