Your Own Gin

Why distilled Gin?     YOUR BRAND GIN

YOUR BRAND GIN is a top quality gin produced by re-distilling neutral spirit with natural botanicals such as juniper berries, citrus peel, and coriander seeds - all heated in a still. As the alcohol vapour is driven off, the flavours and aromas are released into the spirit vapour giving that special flavour of YOUR BRAND GIN.  Because of the special distillation method, YOUR BRAND GIN is a premium Gin that puts it into the top division of branded World-renowned Gins.

 

By contrast, cheap Gins are neutral spirits with flavours added. The cheapest and easiest way is to make cold compound Gin – which is neutral spirit with added extracted essences. These cheaper gins lack character and can quickly lose their flavour and aroma when mixers are added.

 

Are all premium Gins "Single batch distillation"?

 

No. Only a few people know the secrets of Gin making and we believe that YOUR BRAND GIN is very special (like the finest of malt whiskies). The Master Distiller checks each individual batch distillation before it is allowed to carry the name of YOUR BRAND GIN. Quality is of utmost importance to our discerning Gin customers. The integrity of each batch is important to us. Not all distillations are allowed to bear the name YOUR BRAND GIN  - only the few selected by our Master Distiller.

 

What else makes YOUR BRAND GIN so special?

 

In addition to the single batch distillation method, YOUR BRAND GIN is made with a subtle blend of botanicals sourced from all over the world.  Each individual botanical is carefully chosen for its unique quality, which helps give YOUR BRAND GIN a special character.

 

YOUR BRAND GIN has a bias towards citrus tones that come from ribbons of citrus peels including lemon, sweet orange and bitter orange carefully crafted into the gin through the distillation process.

 

Additionally, old traditional well-proven copper pot stills are used. The Rolls Royce of Gin Still makers John Dore Limited makes them. As any Gin maker will tell you, each individual still makes a gin of different characteristics. We only use two stills - which have the reputation of making the best London Dry Distilled Gins.

 

To get the best out of our botanicals YOUR BRAND GIN uses an individual marinating process that involves many hours of the botanicals mixing with neutral grain alcohol before distillation commences. As any top food chef will tell you, marinating helps to extract the special flavours and characteristics of ingredients - just taste the results. YOUR BRAND GIN is testament to this fact.

 

Where is YOUR BRAND GIN made?

 

In England - the home of London Dry Gin by traditional Gin Distillers at the Langley Distillery.

 

How individual is YOUR BRAND GIN?

 

YOUR BRAND GIN is unique. The method of production, blend of botanicals and selection of batches are all very personal to this London Dry Gin of true character. Family traditions that are well proven are testament to the honesty of this individual Gin.

 

How natural is YOUR BRAND GIN?

 

All ingredients are natural. No artificial flavours, oils or essences are used in the making of YOUR BRAND GIN.

 

Who created YOUR BRAND GIN?

 

Master distillers of bygone days developed the Gin that forms the base of YOUR BRAND GIN.  The current Master Distiller has further developed the Gin with citrus tones to give that “special something”  - a subtle combination of quality ingredients, methodology, "nose" and experience.

 

What are the true characteristics of YOUR BRAND GIN?

 

A crisp gin with subtle citrus overtones and a spicy fruit edge.  YOUR BRAND GIN is an exceptionally smooth refined and dignified gin.

 

How should YOUR BRAND GIN be taken?

 

Either on its own over ice or without ice if you wish to really appreciate its true flavours. YOUR BRAND GIN goes well with tonic water and other mixers. Some premium gins, not made in traditional pot stills are light and can lose their flavour when mixers are added.

 

How does YOUR BRAND GIN perform in cocktails?

 

The subtle blend of botanicals and neutral spirit, together with the pure water, form an ideal “launching pad” for the expert barman to truly show off their skills.  YOUR BRAND GIN is a must for barman at the top of their profession.

 

How many botanicals are used to make YOUR BRAND GIN?

 

Ten.  We do not wish to give all our secrets but can tell you that Juniper, Coriander seeds and citrus peels play an important part.
