This award-winning Bathtub Gin takes a while to perfect, but we think it’s worth it.First, copper pot-distilled gin is made with juniper, coriander and other fragrant botanicals, but they don’t stop there. Instead, they take a portion of this gin and painstakingly infuse it with a further six fresh botanicals - a process which takes a whole week to do…(which might seem like a lot of effort, but you get out what you put in as they say, and if we want a delicious gin then it needs to be made deliciously!) This infusion process allows those fresh botanical flavours – too delicate to survive traditional distillation – to shine through, and Bathtub Gin is left with its unique flavour and distinctive hue.
Founded in 2011, Ableforth’s® was created by three friends who simply wanted to make distinctively delicious drinks that they would enjoy themselves - be that a gin, a rum or other treats. They took some inspiration from the past, from styles of drink known for flavours which were robust, fresh and unusual, and created a range of really bloody tasty spirits.But Ableforth’s is a thoroughly modern brand with an uncompromising approach to its liquid creation. From infusion (a process known in the drinks world as cold-compounding) and vacuum distillation, to using highest quality spirits including XO Cognac, every Ableforth’s drink is made deliciously, using only the finest methods and ingredients to ensure each and every sip is something special.
Tasting Notes:Nose: Fresh and bold juniper leads the way with fragrant citrus and cardamom. Notes of fresh orange peel and cinnamon add to an enticing nose. Taste: Juniper again leads, but there’s plenty more besides. The mouthfeel is thick and creamy whilst the cloves, coriander and cardamom offer depth. Finish: Here the supporting botanicals really shine with lingering cardamom and orange peel on the tail. Bathtub Gin tastes great with premium tonic and a wedge of orange.
