Hendricks Original Gin is a unique spirit that embodies a distinct character from traditional gins. It is crafted using an innovative process by master distiller Lesley Gracie at the Girvan distillery in Scotland, where classic gin-making techniques meet modern artistry. Hendricks sets itself apart with its unconventional blend of botanicals and distillation methods, predominantly featuring a small 1860s pot still alongside a rare Carter-Head still.
This meticulous approach results in a gin that is intriguingly flavored. The eleven botanicals that make up Hendricks include juniper, coriander, and orris root, creating a balanced foundation. What truly elevates Hendricks is its signature infusion of Bulgarian rose and cucumber, producing a refreshing and aromatic profile that is distinctly its own.
The tasting notes highlight the interplay of cool cucumber and delicate rose on the nose, leading to a palate enriched with a smooth, subtly spiced juniper character. The finish is clean and floral, leaving a lingering impression that invites further exploration. Each sip is an adventure in flavor, showcasing how Hendricks successfully transcends the ordinary gin experience.
Hendricks Original Gin, with an ABV of 41.4% and packaged in a stylish 700ml bottle, is perfect for crafting exceptional cocktails or savored neat. This Scottish gin appeals broadly to both traditionalists and those seeking innovative flavors. Experience the elegance of Hendricks while enjoying classic cocktails such as the Gin and Tonic or a refreshing Cucumber Martini.
