The Botanist Islay Dry Gin 700ml

Islay’s wild botanicals give this gin its unmistakable sense of place. The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is a Scottish dry gin from Islay, led by juniper and layered with the island’s distinctive botanical character. The palate is satin-smooth, opening into apple mint, delicate menthol and coriander before citrus peel and aniseed bring freshness and definition. Floral notes sit alongside touches of honey, coconut and water mint, creating complexity without overwhelming the gin’s clean juniper core.

Its balance of citrus, herbs, flowers and cooling mint makes The Botanist particularly versatile in classic gin drinks. Serve simply with tonic to keep its aromatic detail in focus, or use it in a Dry Martini where the texture and botanical depth have room to show.
