About this deal

I always avoided Bombay Dry because I didn’t like Sapphire. Based on your review, I bought a bottle to replace my Boodles. To me it’s an excellent all purpose gin. Very good in Martinis with a substantial amount of Dolin Dry (3:1, 2:1 and 50/50). Bombay Sapphire is putting citrus fruits front and centre in its new Premier Cru Murcian Lemon gin. Having loved Bombay Sapphire, I’m so disappointed with Bombay Dry. I did not find its wood taste in the least inviting. I love wood, work wood, turn wood, carve wood – no way do I want to drink it!Frank1

Ivano Tonutti, Bombay Sapphire Master of Botanicals, said: “The Mediterranean lemons are harvested at their perfect ripeness and truly showcase the very best flavours that nature has to offer. By harvesting them early in the season, their lively citrus notes shine through in the gin, delivering a vibrant, sophisticated taste.”

This is perfectly balanced with the vibrant juniper notes of our classic signature Gin. A real fruits infusion with no added sugar gives a distinct colour and natural flavour. Murcian citrus is particularly special due to the exact region where it is grown. Sitting in a basin between mountain and sea, it is the perfect microclimate for growing citrus that slowly ripens in the winter months for the best-tasting fruit and impactful flavour.” As part of the brand’s ongoing mission towards sustainability, each of the botanicals in Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru is set to be sustainably sourced by the end of 2021. It follows an announcement in March this year that eight out of 10 of the core Bombay Sapphire botanicals were being sourced sustainably.

Discover the bright, bold citrus notes of sustainably grown Spanish Fino lemons, mandarins and sweet Navel oranges from Murcia. A celebration of nature’s finest flavors. The botanical blend is rather traditional and unsurprising— it is after all based on what would have been widely and easily available on the British market in the 1760’s. It includes almond, licorice, coriander, lemon, cassia, angelica, orris root and juniper sources from Saxony. Tasting Notes Natasha Curtin, global vice president for Bombay Sapphire, noted an increase in “ curiosity for authentic and new flavour expressions” among consumers, while tending to favour natural, premium ingredients with no added sugar. It comes after the launch in March of Bombay Sapphire Sunset, which also featured Spanish citrus alongside turmeric and white cardamom. Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru Murcian Lemon The nose of Bombay Dry Gin is soft. There’s a touch of angelica rounding out then mild juniper with a pine and herbaceous facet. Citrus and a hint of gently piquant cinnamon provide lift. Bombay Sapphire Gin is quite classic with a pleasant roundness and accessible aroma.This has been my liquor of choice for multiple years. To me, it is much smoother than Beefeaters which is its main competitor in price. Given the price difference between it and the Bombay Sapphire, the taste of Dry and price value makes it preferable to the sapphire. The launch of Bombay Citron Pressé – made from natural fruit infusions with no added sugar – follows on from the brand’s previous fruit-forward launch; Bombay Bramble. I am incredibly proud of the meticulous processes used to produce Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru from the skilled sourcing and preparation of botanicals to my role in carefully adapting every small batch of gin to bring out the nuances of the late harvest during distillation, amplifying the unique characteristics and finest flavours into a consistent flavour profile every year.”
