Edinburgh Gin is a versatile and elegant gin, renowned for its clean, citrus-forward profile with underlying notes of juniper, heather, and pine. The subtle sweetness of orange peel and the gentle spice of botanicals like angelica and coriander make it a well-balanced choice for pairing. When enjoyed alongside The Drinks Bakery’s Pecorino Cheese & Rosemary Drinks Biscuits, the sharpness of the Pecorino enhances the citrus and juniper, while the rosemary draws out the gin’s herbal undertones. The Scottish seaweed, with its briny character, beautifully complements Edinburgh Gin’s native botanicals, creating a harmonious and deeply satisfying pairing.
Hendrick's Gin is celebrated for its distinctive infusion of cucumber and rose, which gives it a refreshing, floral character unlike any other gin. Its smooth blend of botanicals, including juniper, coriander, and citrus peels, provides a delicate balance between herbal, citrus, and floral notes. Paired with The Drinks Bakery’s Pecorino Cheese & Rosemary Drinks Biscuits, the sharpness of Pecorino adds depth to the floral sweetness of Hendrick's, while the rosemary enhances the herbal elements. The seaweed's faint brininess contrasts the cucumber, bringing a refreshing, savoury complexity that elevates the gin’s crisp, botanical profile.
Isle of Harris Gin is famed for its distinctive maritime character, largely thanks to the infusion of hand-harvested sugar kelp from the Outer Hebrides. This gin offers refreshing citrus notes, a touch of sweet pine, and a smooth, earthy depth. When paired with The Drinks Bakery’s Pecorino Cheese & Rosemary Drinks Biscuits , the salty seaweed in the biscuits beautifully echoes the coastal flavours of the gin, while the Pecorino’s sharpness contrasts the gin’s subtle sweetness. The rosemary enhances the herbal, earthy undertones, creating a harmonious pairing that brings out the best in Isle of Harris Gin’s coastal charm.
Silent Pool Gin is known for its complex, floral bouquet and rich layers of botanicals, including lavender, chamomile, citrus, and honey. The combination of fresh juniper, warm spices, and delicate florals creates a balanced yet vibrant flavour profile. When paired with The Drinks Bakery’s Pecorino Cheese & Rosemary Drinks Biscuits, the sharpness of the Pecorino elevates the citrus and juniper notes, while the rosemary enhances the gin’s herbal depth. The brininess of the seaweed contrasts beautifully with Silent Pool’s floral and honeyed sweetness, adding a savoury twist that deepens the complexity of this aromatic artisan gin.
Seedlip Spice 94 is a non-alcoholic "gin" spirit that delivers a bold, aromatic profile with warm spices like allspice, cardamom, and citrus peels, alongside earthy notes of oak and cascarilla bark. Its rich, layered flavours make it a complex and satisfying alternative to traditional gin.
