Winchester Distillery Spring Meadow Gin 40%

Description

Winchester Distillery Spring Meadow Gin is a small batch, micro-distilled Hampshire gin made at the Winchester Distillery. It is a limited edition gin which owner and distiller Paul Bowler only makes a batch once an year. It joins three other seasonal gins in their portfolio, the Summer Garden, Autumn Hedgerow and Winter Wassail.

Winchester Distillery is arguably most famous for the their Hampshire watercress infused Twisted Nose Gin which was the first they released in 2013. All of the Hampshire gins at Winchester Distillery are distilled in a traditional copper pot still, a descendent of the alembic still, used to make batches of spirits, unlike the continuous distillation of large, more commercial column stills. Pot stills produce a very fine grade of spirit. The botanicals are gently crushed, mixed and macerated pure, neutral spirit to release the oils that give the gin its characteristic flavours. The spirit and macerated botanicals are then re-distilled in the pot still and only the heart of the distillate is used for the final bottling.

Winchester Distillery Spring Meadow Gin is a wonderfully fresh style of gin perfect for drinking in the spring and summer months. It is a juniper rich style of gin made with fresh and floral spring botanicals including elderflower, lavender, lime flower and orange blossom. 

A limited edition bottling of just 360 bottles.
