In 1761, one of the most distinguished distillers in England began producing a smooth, botanical-infused gin quite unlike the coarse imports of the times. In the bustling Navy port of Warrington, the gin was an instant hit among the wealthier classes, naval officers and exporters, bringing new life to a dying craft and a new style to England’s aristocracy. Today, we proudly produce this original recipe with a unique twist for the 21st century.
Q Gin is imported from England, and distilled 5 times to create a pure and flawless spirit. The essence of lotus leaves and lavender have been added to the traditional profile of juniper and other botanicals, giving this gin a distinctive and smooth taste matched by no other super-premium gin.
The silky flavor profile of lavender and exotic lotus flower leaves combined with the water from one of England’s purest springs, impart a uniquely refreshing, smooth taste. Quintessential Gin takes the fine British tradition of gin distillation in brave new directions.
At 80 proof, Q Gin is smooth enough to be taken straight up, graceful enough to be mixed in any cocktail and always deliciously unforgettable.
