Distiller Notes
Singapore’s First Gin has been designed to reflect the cultures and cuisines of its home country. The usual suspects appear old-world botanicals like coriander seed and licorice. Tanglin then introduces Asian ingredients like amchoor, rich botanicals like java pepper, and vanilla planifolia.
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.
