The Edinburgh Gin Distillery was established in 2010. Distilled in the heart of Scotland’s capital city it captures this wonderful cities creativity and vibrance.
The Edinburgh Classic Gin is based on the a London Dry style. This multi award winning gin uses the finest grain spirit which is brought together with an original balance of 14 botanicals. The woody hint of pine buds, aromatic lemongrass and floral lavender are all present. Fruity jammy flavour from black mulberries balances perfectly with the citrus from the orange and lime peels in the finish. Hazelnuts, thick with natural oils, add texture and a smooth mouthfeel.
“The heart of our range. The key to Classic is balance. All of the traditional gin flavours are here in harmony; juniper, pine, citrus, floral and a touch of spice. We source the best botanicals and the result is a versatile full-flavoured, crisp and refreshing gin. This gin is central to everything we make and we are always making little tweaks to the recipe to ensure that it Is always of the highest quality.” – David Wilkinson, Head Distiller
