Description
Discover The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is a premium handcrafted gin made at the famous Bruichladdich distillery on the remote island of Islay, Scotland.
It stands out for its unique complexity, achieved through the extremely slow distillation of 22 wild botanicals hand-foraged on the island itself, combined with 9 classic botanicals. The result is a satin-smooth gin with a creamy texture and a fresh, herbal, and floral aromatic profile, where notes of juniper, mint, citrus, and subtle coastal saline touches stand out. Ideal for lovers of luxury mixology and spirits with an authentic terroir.
