Cambridge Seasonal Gin (Spring / Summer 2020) (700mL)

A limited edition seasonal Gin with a bright and zesty palate.

Cambridge Distillery was founded in 2011 by William and Lucy Lowe. Their stated objective was to "… capture the taste of the English seasons using botanicals grown in and around their home" in Cambridge, UK. And while there are many fine Gin products being produced these days, the laser-like focus of Cambridge Distillery is on ultra-premium Spirit production using extreme precision and some of the finest ingredients possible. Their showroom distillery looks more like a laboratory with beakers and equipment to test every step in the process and has earned them the distinction of "Most Innovative Distillery in the World" three times over, among other notable awards and distinctions.

The idea for creating a "seasonal" Gin came quite naturally enough. William and Lucy would take walks through the wild meadows near their home and gather herbs to make their crafted Gins. Since wild herbs have their seasonality of growth and blooming, each edition became a snapshot in time. A picture of the English countryside captured in distilled Spirits.

Cambridge Seasonal Gin (Spring / Summer 2020) has just been released and — in addition to the juniper and other core botanicals — includes lemon thyme, lemon verbena, and lemon balm. As you will imagine, this creates a remarkable, layered citrus effect that is clean and refreshing. It also means that this fine Gin makes for an exceptional, well-balanced tonic.
