The Hendrick's Gin Distillery Hendrick's Gin NV 750ml

This gin has a fierce following, in part because of its quirky brand personality (see the Monty Python-esque website) and aggressive marketing among bartenders. But it lives up to the hype. Some might expect a more concentrated rosewater-cucumber profile, but it’s relatively subtle, with just a hint of cucumber mingling with juniper in the aroma, and white pepper, citrus and floral notes on the lingering finish.

Hendrick’s Gin is best summed up in three words: complex, clean and refreshing. Complexity greets the nose first, with a bouquet of fresh botanicals highlighted by notes of juniper and flower petals. Upon tasting, you’ll be astonished at how the gin takes on an earthy yet clean taste, which is finished by a hint of cucumber. When enjoyed in a martini with a twist of lemon, no gin is as refreshing.
