Mermaid Gin is a hand-made, small-batch gin using 10 botanicals that are meticulously sourced for quality and carefully blended to create a smooth, fresh and complex flavour profile. Locally foraged rock samphire and elderflower, fresh citrus zest from Sicilian lemons and Grains of Paradise are complemented by Boadicea hops grown in the local botanical gardens at Ventnor, English coriander from Sussex, orris root, angelica root, liquorish root, and juniper.
The gin is slow distilled, cut with Island chalk-fed spring water and then rested for 7 days before being bottled on the Island to give its signature smooth delivery and fresh, invigorating flavour. Mermaid Gin achieves classification as a London Dry Gin, a marque of quality, using 100% natural ingredients and no additives. Check out our other expressions of Mermaid Gin.

TASTING NOTES
Citrus zing with a peppery spice – an earthy sweetness and a hint of sea air.
Serving Suggestions
Fill a glass with ice, a generous measure of Mermaid Gin and just a splash of Fever-Tree tonic. Garnish with juniper berries, a sprig of samphire or a ribbon of cucumber and let the smooth and complex flavours shine through. Free the spirit.
