Our 11 key botanicals are weighed out by hand before every distillation; this includes a combination of both fresh and dried botanicals to create a balanced, versatile and flavour packed gin.
CRISP BITTERNESS
Rowan Berries, which are foraged locally, help provide the unique, crisp taste of Ben Lomond Gin.
SPICE & CITRUS
Coriander seeds contain a lot of oil and when it's distilled it has a very complex flavour that is both spicy and citrusy.
PINEY, FRESH, CITRUS& SPICE
Juniper Berries are the underpinning ingredient and the predominant flavour of bright pine freshness with citrus and pepper spice.
The orange peel adds the true citrus element of the gin.
FLORAL AROMAS & COMPLEXITY
The rose petals have a strong floral aroma which adds another layer of complexity to the overall gin.
SPICE & HEAT
The Szechuan Peppercorns add a slight spiciness at the end of the gin which prolongs the after taste of the gin.
JUICY BERRY SWEETNESS
Blackcurrants add a subtle sweetness to the overall flavour.
FLORAL & HARMONISING
The root of the Iris plant, Orris gives an overall floral note to the gin and acts as a binding elements to bring all the other botanicals together.
SPICE & LENGTH
The Cassia add a slight spiciness at the end of the gin which prolongs the aftertaste of the gin.
SWEET & WOODY
Liquorice Root provides a distinctive sweet note with mild woody tones to the complex mix. This also enhances the mouthfeel of the gin.
EARTHY BITTERNESS
Angelica gives a bitter, earthy flavour that again compliments the bitterness of the juniper but also helps to reign in the sweetness of the berries.
