Ben Lomond Scottish Gin
Taking inspiration from the beauty and extensive natural flora in Loch Lomond & The Trossachs (Scotland, UK), Ben Lomond have created a a classic London Dry style gin with a delicious Scottish berry twist.
They utilise a stunning purple bottle which is a tribute to the wild heather which can be found on the slopes of Ben Lomond, and all around the surrounding countryside.
In total, their classic style gin is produced with 11 key botanicals, the inital 9 are: Juniper Berries, Coriander Seeds, Angelica Root, Orange, Rose Petals, Szechuan Pepper, Orris Root, Cassia, and Liquorice. They then also include two hand-picked Scottish berries, blackcurrants, and locally foraged rowan berries.
There is a citrus orange aroma, which blends delicately with rose and summer berries. On the palate it is incredibly smooth, with zesty lemon, crispness form juniper, berries, and just a hint of spice.
Overall, the blending and distillation gives this gin a vibrant and crisp flavour and the finish is soft and fruity with a delicate rowan berry sweetness.

Perfect Serve
We love this with a premium tonic water such as Fever-Tree Premium Indian Tonic. In a large glass filled with ice, add 50ml of the gin, and gently pour over 150ml of the tonic. Stir gently, and finish by garnishing with a few fresh blackberries and a squeeze of lime.
