Dr Squid Gin
£10.00
Squid ink is so powerful that just a drop is needed to give a gin its distinctive colour and flavour. Vanilla was added to compliment the sea buckthorn, which provides a tart and very refreshing finish. Dr Squid pours black and turns pink when mixed with tonic. A 40% ABV bespoke gin served perfectly from an engraved copper flask detailing the scenery, wildlife and folklore which can be viewed from the distillery. This gin first came to fruition in the spring of 2018.
Shake can well prior to serving.

Customer Reviews
Fabulous gin tasting experience. We had a top-class private party brilliantly hosted by Paul and Mel in a lovely setting. We learned a lot about gin, both the process and the composition. Our selection had been carefully chosen and Mel was so knowledgeable about the gins we were tasting. Great value for money and a fun evening.
Very warm and welcoming staff. Helped me pick out a brilliant birthday gift for my mother. Would highly recommend!
