The Herb Garden With Love Damask Rose & Juniper Gin is a golden, rose-infused gin from the Secret Garden Distillery in Scotland, bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV).
At the Secret Garden Distillery, the botanicals are hand-harvested and dried in the distillery's own drying room before being distilled and infused. The Damask rose, known as the Apothecary Rose and used in tinctures and tonics of eras gone by, is subtle in fragrance and naturally floral in flavor, a romantic companion to the gin.
It is a lovely golden gin with aromas of rose and hints of juniper. It tastes like Turkish Delight with light citrus and candied cherry, a gorgeous, delicate gin that is as refreshing as it is beautiful. Pour it over ice with a premium light tonic and watch it transform from shimmering gold to a lovely pink in honor of the rose's petals.
With its rose-garland label, it makes a beautiful romantic gift.
Rose-infused gins bring a soft floral sweetness that pairs naturally with tonic and fresh fruit.
Hand-harvesting and drying the botanicals on site gives the distillery control over every flavor.
The color change makes it a fun centerpiece for parties and celebrations.
A slice of fresh strawberry or a few raspberries make a lovely garnish.
It also works well in a gin spritz topped with sparkling wine.
Serve it in a large balloon glass to show off the color.
