DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The Botanist is made at the Bruichladdich Distillery on Islay, the Scottish island better known for smoky single malts. It was introduced in 2011.
The recipe uses 31 botanicals. Nine are the classic gin set, and 22 are hand-foraged on Islay itself. The foraged ones sit in a basket inside a Lomond still the distillery calls Ugly Betty, so the vapor passes through them slowly. It is bottled at 46% ABV. In the glass that means a full, floral, herbal gin with juniper and citrus up front and a long, slightly sweet finish. It has more going on than a standard London Dry.
Use it in a gin and tonic with a light tonic and a sprig of thyme or a strip of lemon peel. It also makes a very good martini and a fine Negroni. Keep the 1L bottle in the freezer door if you mix often.
Bottle size: 1L
