The world famous gin in its distinctive blue bottle. Every drop contains
10 hand-selected botanicals from exotic locations around the world.
Going To Great Lengths
Our Master of Botanicals, Ivano Tonutti, doesn’t just go the extra mile,
he goes an extra thousand miles. He hand-selects the botanicals used in
our gin and builds personal relationships with each grower.
Infused With Care
Once we’ve hand-selected the finest botanicals on earth, there’s no way
we’re then going to boil them. We gently vapour infuse them to capture
their bright, vibrant flavours.
The Perfect Balance
Every one of our gins reflect our rigorous selection process and
uncompromising approach to creating fresh, clean, bright flavours that
are perfect for creating exceptional mixed drinks.
Our Essential Botanicals
From the heat of our Moroccan CORIANDER SEEDS to the spice of our West
African Grains of Paradise, every one of our ten precious botanicals are
chosen to bring their own special something to our gin. Uniquely
distilled, they come together to give Bombay Sapphire its tantalising,
smooth and complex taste.
Tasting Notes
The flavouring of the drink comes from a recipe of ten ingredients
(which the bottle's label boasts as "10 exotic botanicals"): almond,
lemon peel, liquorice, juniper berries, orris root, angelica, coriander,
cassia, cubeb, and grains of paradise. The spirit is triple distilled
using a carterhead still, and the alcohol vapours are passed through a
mesh/basket containing the ten botanicals, in order to gain flavour and
aroma. This gives a lighter, more floral gin rather than the more-common
'punchy' gins that are distilled using a copper pot still.
