Wildcraft Allen Solly POPULAR DELIVERY RESTAURANTS The Botanist Gin is a unique, well-balanced gin that lives up to its name being created by two botanical experts, a full-time forager and the Head Distiller. Isle of Islay The botanicals which include juniper, coriander seeds, ginger, lemongrass, fennel, chamomile, orange peels are sourced from India and around the world and makes it quite citrusy. The manufacturer uses 'Ugly Betty', a Lomond Still for distillation, which is the only one still being used. Introduced in 2010, this gin has gained popularity around the world.

The flavor is floral which makes it more of a modern option as opposed to a London one. Because of the Iris infusion, this gin is naturally blue in color.This artisanal dry gin is influenced exclusively by botanicals – no essences, oils or flavourings are added.The use of such aromatic plants for flavouring spirit is not new. Islay’s distillers have a long tradition of using whatever was at hand to improve their rustically produced usquebaugh, distilled on small, portable stills, hidden away in remote glens.

Well balanced, but sufficiently complex; The Botanist Gin may be the floral/herbal gin most well suited to entice the classic gin aficionado a bit step ever so slightly outside of their comfort zone. GinBoss thinks the makers of The Botanist have it right to label it Islay Dry Gin. Why not let it define itself? There is no other gin like it and it is wholly defined by its terroir and botanicals.
