Description

Silverback Clementine and Bergamot Gin is a bright and citrusy gin packed full of clementine orange and bergamot flavours and aromas. It is made by Gorilla Spirits and is based on their original Silverback Mountain Strength Gin. A great choice for those who enjoy a refreshing and fruity twist to their gin.

The Gorilla Spirits Co. was founded by Andy Daniels and was born out of a passion for wishing to produce high-quality, artisan spirits while also supporting conservation efforts. Andy spent four years perfecting the Mountain Strength Gin recipe until the first release in 2015. The original distillery was located in Four Marks near Alton but, needing more space, they relocated to the village of Upton Grey, southeast of Basingstoke, in the summer of 2018. As of 2024, the spirits are made at the Spirit of Manchester Distillery.

As well as this fabulous flavoured gin they also produce various other gins, including Silverback Mountain Strength, an Old Tom, a Wild Strawberry, and Blackback Vodka, Karisimbi Spiced Rum and Maraba coffee liqueurs. Their products have received many awards and accolades for their quality and craftsmanship.

As mentioned above, the base for this is the Mountain Strength Gin. The botanicals in Silverback Gin include Juniper, Coriander, Angelica, Sweet Orange, Calamus Root, Acacia Blossom and Lemongrass. In addition to the main botanicals are added Clementine and Bergamot. Clementines are small, sweet oranges with have a vibrant and juicy flavor which lend a distinct, refreshing and zesty citrusy sweetness to the gin. Bergamot is a fragrant citrus fruit that is often used in perfumes and teas (probably most famously used as the citrus flavouring in Earl Grey tea) which has a slightly tart flavour with floral and aromatic undertones. 

Silverback Clementine and Bergamot Gin is bottled at 38% ABV.
