Let’s talk about Gin The Botanist 1 Lt

More questions

The Botanist is the only gin in the world produced on the Scottish island of Islay, famous for its renowned Whisky. A distillate obtained with 31 herbs, 9 of which are classic, and 22 including flowers and herbs, all exclusively hand-picked on the island. The result is a unique and inimitable gin, with a complex structure capable of conquering from the first sip.

Colorless and crystalline to the eye, it offers the nose aromas of menthol, juniper, coriander and anise, to finish with citrus notes. The sip is rich and very soft, perfectly balanced by the freshness of the citrus fruit, with a very long persistence.

The Botanist is a highly appreciated gin used by barmen to recreate fabulous cocktails.

The story
Originally built in the late 19th century, the historic Bruichladdich complex was rebuilt and relaunched in the early 2000s. After periods of closure in the 20th century the distillery was revived by a relaunch team in 2001; in 2012 it became part of the Rémy Cointreau group. In recent years it has developed barley origin programmes and terroir research, and launched the gin The Botanist.
Distillation
Distillation in pot stills with tall, narrow necks, with slow fermentations in wooden washbacks; for gin, maceration/infusion of botanicals followed by distillation; some methods aimed at preserving character without chill-filtration or added colour.
Ageing
Maturation in various casks (warehoused on the island), using different wood types and quality finishes; some gin editions are rested in casks (cask-rested).
Raw materials
  • barley - 100% Scottish (traceable)
  • Islay spring water
  • neutral wheat spirit (wheat) - base for The Botanist (indicated in the sources for the gin)
