Tasting Profile & Food Pairings
Taste Notes
- Nose: Crisp and floral. Bright notes of juniper, coriander, and citrus peel, with a distinct floral perfume of rose.
- Palate: Uniquely refreshing. It leads with a classic juniper bite that quickly softens into cool cucumber and creamy floral notes.
- Finish: Clean and dry, with a lingering hint of black pepper and rose water.
Food Pairings & Serving
- The "Tiny" G&T: One 50ml bottle is the perfect measure for a single glass. Mix with premium tonic water and always garnish with a slice of cucumber (never lime) to highlight the infusion.
- Savory Pairing: Pairs brilliantly with Smoked Salmon Canapés or Cucumber Sandwiches.
- Sweet Pairing: Surprisingly good with Lemon Shortbread or White Chocolate, which complements the gin's floral sweetness.
About the brand
Hendrick’s Gin is produced by William Grant & Sons at the Hendrick’s Gin Palace in Girvan, Scotland. Known for its "peculiar" branding and apothecary-style bottle, it is world-renowned for its use of two different stills—the Bennett and the Carter-Head—to create a gin that is remarkably smooth yet complex. The 50ml "Shooter" or Miniature is a faithful scale replica of the iconic dark brown bottle, making it a favorite for airline travel, wedding favors, and stocking stuffers.
