Distiller Notes
Fantastically fruity, the Damson is definitely something special. Masses of luscious, hand-picked British damson plums are left to steep for six months or more in our London Dry gin. Slowly matured, the resulting rich, ruby-red gin is velvety and smooth with an intense depth of flavor and fruity dryness; unlike many fruit gins, it delivers quite a kick - bottled with an alcohol content of 40%.

Enjoying an enthusiastic resurgence in modern cocktail culture, Gin, a.k.a. ‘Dutch Courage,’ was originally touted as a 16th century cure for cowardice and stomach ailments. Arguably the broadest and most dynamic category of spirits in terms of flavor profiles and production styles, Gin is a distilled grain spirit that derives its primary flavor from juniper berries and secondary flavors from a dazzling array of spices, herbs, fruits and botanicals. It is both produced and enjoyed all around the world and is most commonly mixed into cocktails such as the Martini or simply added to tonic water.
