Hendrick's Flora Adora Gin, 70cl

Product Information

Bruha managing director Rob Breakwell said: “Bruha Porter is the first in a line of nine seasonal cask beers we will be launching into pubs and bars this year. The new serve is presented in plastic-free bottles with a sustainably sourced natural cork stopper and tamper-proof seal made from corn and potato starch, designed based on a Mermaid’s tail. Serving suggestion:​ We want Bruha to become an essential beer brand and be known for creating aspirational beers that are consistently delicious.

Dara: Who did you work with for the labeling? What was the original vision to bring this concept to life? The great thing about gin is it can be stored for years without going off, but it’s recommended to drink it within two years of opening. Even if you tightly reseal it, it’ll likely lose taste and quality if you leave it any longer. What are the different types of gin? Taste: While some hints of peach and rose come on early, so does the underlying gin. Green juniper dominates the mid-palate hovering in a floral haze of lavender and lilac. Coriander and some spice comes through as the spirit recedes on the palate, revealing a green herbaceous side. With Pod Pea Vodka we’re showcasing an incredible British crop in a spirit that is made as kindly as possibly. We're excited to see how the trade play with what we’ve created.”Flora Adora’s botanical bill is rich with pungent blossoms, including lavender, rose and hibiscus and has been released as a limited edition in 2023. Tasting notes There are four different types of gin: London dry gin, old Tom, Plymouth and navy strength gin. Is gin gluten-free?

The second rum in the distillery’s portfolio, which also includes a trio of gins and a vodka offering, Mermaid Spiced rum marries Caribbean rums from Trinidad and the Dominican Republic with local fruits and spices from the Isle of Wight. Gracie: This is an enticing floral bouquet that is particularly attractive to our flying friends. As for exactly which ones, that’s a carefully guarded secret. Much like a bouquet of flowers, the flavor profile of this gin is about how the botanicals combine to create a whole, not about any one individual stem. It is not always helpful to deconstruct a liquid into individual elements, just like the way one botanical may present independently is very different from how the overall character it helps to create when combined with others. That is the magic and mystery of blending, and for me that’s the fun part.

Firstly, while evocative, the floral notes are so overdone that that readily dial into some of the least positive associations of flowers as flavoring— it can taste like soap in some preparations— or at the best, it’s reminiscent of overwhelming soliflore perfumes of yesteryear (their popularity, especially in the late 19th and early 20th century is why some older folks might associate this scent with “Grandma’s purse satchel). Gracie: We’ve been busy bees working on creating playgrounds for pollinators, and we’re just putting the finishing touches on these projects and will be ready to share more information about this next month. Stay tuned! Of all the gins out there, none hit the sweet spot between classic gin flavour and moreish complexity quite like No. 3. If you have room for just one gin on your shelf, we’d make it this one. The brand’s co-founder Xavier Baker said: “We are delighted to announce the launch of our Mermaid Spiced Rum and offer customers a slice of tropical coastal charm.
