Lind & Lime Gin
The first tipple to come from Edinburgh’s Port of Leith Distillery has arrived in the shape of Lind & Lime Gin!
The Dr (James Lind) took a base spirit at 96% ABV and re-distilled it with a carefully curated recipe of 7 botanicals to ensure that each of them worked in delicate harmony. The main three being:
Juniper: the cornerstone of any gin. It’s what makes gin gin. Indeed the English name ‘gin’ is derived from the Dutch word for juniper: jenever.
Lime: He decided early on that he wanted a lime flavour in the gin. Not fruit pastel, confected lime, but zesty refreshing lime, which they extract this from the rind, or skin of the lime.
Pink Peppercorn: The lime needed something to counterbalance it and the answer they found was a gentle addition of spice from pink peppercorns.Nose – A rich golden amber. Complex, sherried, deliciously peated, light butterscotch aromas, with a hint of dried fruit.
Palate – Full bodied with a superb balance of sherried sweetness, malty tones and peaty flavours.
Finish – Long lasting, gloriously sherried, sweet, gently smoky and distinguished.
