Thomas Dakin Small Batch Gin XKM2_L7KKK82

Thomas Dakin Small Batch Gin In 1761, just before the Industrial revolution, Thomas Dakin (at the age of 25), began making high quality gin in the north of England. Prior to this, the quality was generally rather dubious. His inventive outlook ensured a quality gin which made Thomas the forefather of quality gin, and makes this gin one of few with such a rich heritage. This is a classic London Dry gin, which is made in small batches in a baby copper still. Rather uniquely, Thomas Dakin gin includes an infusion of distinctive red cole (a type of horseradish), this was a root botanical which was frequently in refreshing cordials in 18th century northern England. It gives the gin a long, lingering finish. This gin has a delicious aroma, with notes of sweet orange and citrus joining with the classic juniper. On the palate this is classic, with well rounded citrus and savoury botanical notes. It has a deliciously long and lingering finish, coating the mouth well. Perfect Serve Best enjoyed with a classic tonic water, such as Fentimans Premium Indian Tonic. Take a large glass filled with ice, and add 50ml of the gin. Pour in 150 - 200ml of your chosen tonic, and garnish with a slice of orange.
