Hawkridge
Hawkridge Victorian Aphrodisiac Blend Gin 42% 70cl
- Details
Founded in 2018 by three good friends - Robin Horrez, James Gurney and Phil Howarth (who would act as Master Distiller) - Hawkridge Distillery is situated in the small village of Compton in the middle of the North Wessex Downs, not quite equidistant between the triangle of Swindon, Oxford and Reading.
With a focus on Victorian recipes and featuring an incredibly distinctive bottle, the team produces a selection of gins, vodka and more recently a rum.
Despite the vibrant pink bottle, this 'Aphrodisiac' gin is a clear spirit which uses a similar set of botanicals to the Victorian Botanical Blend but with the addition of jasmine, lavender and fresh mint. There's a lovely floral sweetness which is accentuated by the soft mint notes, with a gentle peppery edge on the finish. It's slightly drier than the 'standard' bottling but still drinks well neat, and will also make a wonderful Negroni! - Delivery & Returns
