Firkin Gin Signature Recipe is a small-batch Scottish gin from Gleann Mòr Spirits, bottled at 46% ABV in a 700ml bottle.
It is a London dry-style gin distilled with juniper, coriander seed, angelica root and orris root.
The Signature Recipe is bottled straight from the still, unchill-filtered and with natural colour, so the botanicals come through bold and clear.
Expect crisp juniper and citrus with a spicy, earthy backbone and a full, oily texture from the higher strength.
Gleann Mòr is an independent whisky bottler, and its Firkin range is best known for gins rested in oak; this is the clear, unaged house recipe, with the brand's fox on the label.

How to Enjoy It
At 46% ABV, Firkin Gin stands up beautifully in a classic Gin & Tonic with a wedge of lime or a twist of grapefruit, and it makes a bold Negroni with sweet vermouth and bitter aperitivo. Try it in a dry Martini, a Gimlet with fresh lime, or a Tom Collins. For a gathering, set up a G&T bar with a few tonics, citrus wheels and fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme. Pair it with smoked salmon, oysters, Scottish shellfish and herb-roasted chicken. Its bold, unchill-filtered character also makes it a rewarding gin to sip slowly over a single large ice cube. For a gathering, chill the bottle and set out glasses, ice and garnishes so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays.
