Hendrick’s Orbium Gin

Description

Hendrick’s Gin is oddly infused with rose and cucumber, and created from eleven botanicals. Hendrick’s Orbium is a reimagined gin with additional extracts of blue lotus blossom and flavors that are traditionally associated with classic gin libations; quinine found in tonic and wormwood found in Vermouth. This Quininated Spirit is what Hendricks might taste like in a parallel universe. Try the beloved easy-to-make gin cocktails in their Orbium disguise; Orbium Martini, Orbium Martinez, and Orbium and Soda. Hand-crafted on the Southwest coast of Scotland in the decidedly un-ginnish town of Girvan, tiny batches of only 500 lovely litres are produced at a time, which gives Ms. Lesley Gracie, our Master Distiller and the inventor of Hendricks Gin, greater control of her careful artistry. Hendricks Gin is created via an absurdly inefficient, yet quite glorious process. In essence, to make one gin, we first create two. One on an old-fashioned pot still, yielding a rich and intricate spirit. The other on along-necked Carter Head, producing a delicate, more refined spirit. Each still is infused with an unusual symphony of 11 botanicals. The gins from the two stills are then married together and graced with refreshing infusions of Rose and Cucumber. This odd method of making gin enables Hendricks to taste light, yet intriguingly complex. The result is a wondrously refreshing gin with a delightfully floral aroma, elevating any cocktail and all occasions. Escape the conventional, and embrace the delectable. Please enjoy the unusual responsibly.

Deeply and dazzlingly complex, Orbium combines surprising sweetness with a distinct lingering finish that spirals from zesty to floral, moving onto an altogether unexpected alluringly bitter climax.
