The Ten Botanicals of Conker Black Cherry Gin
Our Raspberry Dorset Gin is made using our Dorset Dry Gin. A classic and Juniper led Gin, but with a little something fresh from Dorset.
Each botanical plays it part in delivering a moreish gin full of a crisp dry spice, a comforting blend of citrus, and a long herbaceous freshness from our Dorset inspired botanicals.
1/10 - Gorse Flowers
Ulex europaeus
Foraged from our Dorset clifftops, Gorse lifts the Dorset Dry from its classic London Dry roots, adding a subtle nectar sweetness and hints of camomile and honey.
2/10 - Marsh Samphire
Salicornia europaea
Found growing in the salty shallows of Dorset’s coastline, Marsh Samphire is distilled to remove its intense saltiness, revealing herbaceous green flavours akin to green tea and a remarkable vegetal sweetness.
3/10 - Elderberry
Sambucus
Elderberries bring a cooling blueberry-like fruitiness from Dorset’s hedgerows and neighbouring New Forest. A good nose can pick out Elderberries lingering jammy finish to our Dorset Dry Gin.
4/10 - Juniper Berry
Juniperus communis
The vital component in gin and the headline act in the Dorset Dry Gin, adding woody spice and piney dryness. Fun fact – this is no berry, its a modified pine cone.
5/10 - Coriander Seed
Coriandrum sativum
6/10 - Angelica Root
Angelica archangelica
Works as a drying agent in the Dorset Dry Gin, adding a bitterness that’s essential to its classic, London Dry Gin foundation.
7/10 - Orris Root
Iris germanica
Used less for its flavour and more for its trickery in binding and enhancing flavours, giving longevity to the gin. Derived from the root of the Iris flower.
8/10 - Cassia Bark
Cinnamomum cassia
9/10 - Bitter Orange
Citrus aurantium
10/10 - Lime Peel
Citrus × latifolia
