Arabella

£65.00

Named ‘Arabella’ after a famous Salcombe Fruit Schooner built in 1860, this limited-edition gin has been developed in collaboration with world renowned chef Michael Caines MBE, one of Britain’s most celebrated and accomplished chefs to create a truly exceptional gin.

This beautifully complex yet delicate gin celebrates classic flavours of juniper, combined with bright citrus aromas from sweet orange peel, lemon and English coriander seed. On the palate it is rich yet balanced with a floral edge followed by a savoury note from bitter almonds. Further freshness from lemon thyme and verbena gives ‘Arabella’ a lingering dry finish.

Limited to 1,200 bottles. 50cl, 46% ABV.

This limited-edition release is no longer available to purchase.

ENDORSEMENTS
Aptly named the Voyager Series

“It’s apt that the British brand’s new series of limited-edition gins is named the ‘Voyager Series’. The first of these team-ups has seen them work with Michael Caines, holder of two Michelin stars for 18 years. Named ‘Arabella’ after one of the famous Salcombe Fruit Schooners, the new release is complex yet delicate with a hefty juniper core infused with Angelica, bright citrus aromas (derived from sweet orange peel and lemon) and coriander seed.”
