Beekeeper Gin
Post distillation, we rested this gin with raw bell heather honey, sourced from our friends at the London Honey Company to create an ode to British honey and the bees that make it.
Tasting Notes
The Nose
A delicate combination of bison grass, clove, rosemary, and white blossom.
The Palate
Warming honey with light lavender and lemon thyme notes pulling through.
The Finish
Dry juniper, with rich caramelised orange and bright ginger-spice.
More Product Information
Each bottle of gin produced here at the Sipsmith Distillery indirectly has several hundred thousand workers that we think are rather under-appreciated: the bees that spend their days pollinating the juniper bushes, orange and lemon trees and many other botanical-producing plants that we distil to make our London Dry Gin. It’s as a salute to these most hardworking of insects that we have created this honey soaked Beekeeper Gin - distilled using botanicals such as sage, orange blossom and heather to simulate the foliage that bees would be attracted to.
