The first bottling from the Boatyard Distillery in Loch Erne, Northern Ireland, is Boatyard Double Gin.  Made from organically produced wheat spirit distilled with botanicals such as sweet gale, grains of paradise, angelica, lemon, orris, liquorice root, coriander and juniper.  This Gin is light, elegant, citrus and crisp juniper, backed up by balanced floral notes and sweet liquorice.  Classically drying, with touches of vanilla, developing later on.

Dead Man's Fingers Coconut Rum is a blend of Caribbean Rum and spices rounded off with smooth, slightly sweet coconut.  Created in Cornwall at the Rum & Crab Shack in St Ives, Dead Man's Fingers has been very popular since it was launched.

Dead Man's Fingers Pineapple Rum is crafted with sweet notes of roasted and candied pineapple.  Well balanced with hints of brown sugar and nutmeg colliding with a whiff of aniseed and lime zest.

Hoxton Gin is made from naturally and ethically sourced ingredients including coconut, grapefruit, iris, tarragon, ginger and the all important juniper berry.  The botanicals are macerated for 5 days before a single distillation in a 150 year old copper pot still to obtain the perfect concentration of flavours.

Hoxton Pink has been created to reflect the bold and creative attitude of East London's Hoxton district.  A selection of ten naturally and ethically sourced botanicals are used in Hoxton Pink.  Juniper, gunpowder tea, rose hip, bergamot, grapefruit, orris, liquorice, chamomile, elderflower and hibiscus sugar.  It has a full juniper aroma with a distinctive floral note.

Made from single estate first flush Darjeeling Tea, the springtime harvest which produces a delicate floral Himalayan black tea, known to tea-lovers as the 'Champagne of Tea'.

Jindea is a citrus-forward Gin with aromatic spices, peaches and apricots.  The single pot still distillation creates a bolder style of Gin that works fantastically in long drinks and even more so in a classic Martini with a twist of grapefruit.

Mayfield Sussex Hop Gin is flavoured with Sussex Hops and 7 other botanicals including juniper berries, angelica root, orris root, coriander seeds, orange and lemon peel.  The hops add a unique floral note and sweet bitterness which is complemented by citrus and juniper botanicals.

This classic Scottish Gin is elevated by the cold-distillation of Buddhas' Hand Citron.  It is juniper led with a bright citrus profile, perfect for a lighter drink.  Porters Gin was created in a bar, not a boardroom, where the creative bartenders in the basement of a cocktail bar consulted with the scientists from Aberdeen University to bring their concepts into reality.

Handcrafted on Södermalm in Stockholm. Stockholms Branneri Dry gin is a Nordic take on a traditional dry gin that has got its characteristics from 7 organic botanicals - juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root, lemon peel, heather, elderflower and rosemary. The blend gives the gin a delicate flowery taste parallel to the classic juniper and citrus notes. This makes it perfect for the classic gin cocktails, but also ideal to purely enjoy neat or in a Dry Martini. 

Inspired by pink summer skies and infused with rose petals and rhubarb, this Gin is floral but still dry.  Foraged lingonberries are steeped in the Gin post distillation giving it its subtle colour and some fruitiness.  This is the taste of the Swedish summer and made for enjoying through the summer nights.
