Ellis’ Take: Why Our Apple Spiced Gin is the Best We’ve Ever Made

Ellis’ Take: Why Our Apple Spiced Gin is the Best We’ve Ever Made

We’ve crafted some incredible expressions that I’m immensely proud of, but every so often, we create something truly special. And honestly? Our Apple Spiced Gin is, without a doubt, the best Limited Release we’ve ever done.

Featuring in our 2024 Winter Collection, let me tell you why this gin has a special place in my heart and why I think it’ll find a special place in yours too.

What to Expect: Tasting Notes

I know tasting is believing, but let me paint a picture of what you can expect from this gin.

  • On the Nose: Juniper mixes with the crispness of real apple, followed by intriguing spice.
  • On the Palate: A rich, smooth and complex experience with freshly bitten crisp apple running alongside juniper. The spices come through beautifully - warming without overpowering, in a way that is still light and refreshing.
  • On the Finish: Long and lingering, with soft spice notes that stick around just enough to invite you back for another sip.

This is the kind of gin that surprises you in the best way, no matter how you choose to enjoy it.

How I’d Drink It

One of the best things about Apple Spiced Gin is its versatility. I’ve experimented (a lot!) and found a few serves that I keep coming back to:

My go-to: Apple Spiced G&T

The simplest way to let the flavours shine:

  • 50ml Apple Spiced Gin
  • 150ml Premium Indian Tonic
  • Garnish: A slice of fresh slice of green apple

The tonic highlights the crisp apple and spice, making it refreshing but still cosy.

Mulled Apple Warmer

Perfect for those cold, dark evenings:

  • 50ml Apple Spiced Gin
  • 150ml Warm Apple Juice (or warm apple cider for a boozy twist)
  • Garnish: A dried apple slice and festive spices

It’s like a warm hug in a glass.

Apple Spiced Negroni

I’m a sucker for a Negroni, and this twist on the classic is a game-changer:

  • 25ml Apple Spiced Gin
  • 25ml Sweet Vermouth
  • 25ml Campari
  • Garnish: Toasted cinnamon stick

The freshness of the gin provides a great base and adds a whole new layer to the bitter-sweet balance.

Why I Think You’ll Love It

This isn’t just my favourite limited release gin because we made it. It’s my favourite because it feels like us - our dedication to craft, creativity and making expressions that bring people together. Apple Spiced Gin is more than a drink; it’s an experience. It’s the crackle of a fire, the laughter of friends, and the magic of the season, all in one bottle.

I’ve never been more excited for people to try one of our creations. When I say this is the best we’ve ever done, I mean it.

Don’t Miss Out

Here’s the catch: Apple Spiced Gin is a Limited Release. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. So if you’re as excited about this as I am, don’t wait too long to grab your bottle.

Trust me, whether you’re sharing it with friends, gifting it to someone special or keeping it all to yourself (no judgment!), this is one gin you’ll want to savour all season long.

Cheers to the season, and cheers to Apple Spiced Gin - one of our finest creations.
