Created by Master Distiller Lesley Gracie and launched in 1999 by William Grant & Sons. Produced in 500 litre batches in the grounds of the Girvan Distillery in Scotland, Hendrick’s uses two stills to make its gin. The first is a traditional copper pot still that can be found at many distilleries and the second is a Carter-Head-style still, which uses a copper basket to hold botanicals during distillation. After blending the two distillates, rose and cucumber essence are added before reducing the alcohol. Bottled at 41.4%. (Bottle size 70cl) 

Nose: The aromas are floral with pine wood and lemon zest as the backdrop.

Palate: The palate is full and balanced with fresh herbs, cocktail bitters, citrus oils, cucumber, and more florals.

Finish: The finish is deep and earthy with a healthy, long and grassy warmth.
