Description
Dartmoor Gin 1890 is made in small batches using some of the finest ingredients and botanicals from Dartmoor and Devon. Boasting fifteen botanicals evocative of Devon in the summertime, this juniper-forward London Dry Gin has its feet firmly planted in the rugged Dartmoor National Park.
Discover hints of lemon peel, sandalwood, and the subtle spiciness of orris root in a floral gin that is as unique as the landscape it is inspired by. This gin also features a touch of Dartmoor Spirit produced from the master whisky still and is cut with pure Dartmoor spring water.
Just like Dartmoor Whisky, Dartmoor Gin 1890 is crafted in an antique ex-Cognac copper still, made in France in 1890. The still has been sandblasted and polished so the copper shines brightly again. Now when you visit the distillery you can see the fully-refurbished still trickling with the finest Dartmoor Gin.
Serving suggestion: Franklin & Son’s Rosemary & Black Olive Tonic Water, garnished with a wedge of lime and a sprig of fresh rosemary for a refreshing summer tipple.
Greg Millar, Founder of Dartmoor Whisky Distillery said, “I created the botanical blend for this gin with my daughter Abby, inspired by our passion for local Dartmoor ingredients and summer walks in the Devon countryside to guide the taste. We knew straight away after tasting the gin that it was something special.”
Nose
A full bouquet of botanicals including delicate rose petals and rosemary notes are sweetened by elderflower and Dartmoor honey. Lower notes of juniper, sandalwood, and pink peppercorns are lingering and earthy.
Body
Sharp citrus peel cuts through the juniper with sweet Dartmoor honey and light elderflower which gives way to the warm undertones of coriander seed, ginger, and orris root.
Palate
Crisp and elegantly balanced between citrus peel, sweet elderflower, and smooth sandalwood. Complex and evocative with a subtle hint of spiciness.
Finish
Botanical, crisp, and long. A lingering finish of pink peppercorns and rose.

"I'm not supposed to be drinking for the next few months but had to have a small glass of this when it turned up. This from Dartmoor Whisky Distillery is up there and it may even be the finest young whisky I've ever had!"

"Extremely pleased to receive one of the first bottles of this for my birthday - it's a really smooth whisky with a great flavour - must be the Dartmoor water!"
