Their first product, Rock Rose Gin, is made with several botanicals, including juniper berries, rose root, sea buckthorn, rowan berries, blaeberries, cardamom, coriander seed and verbena, many of which are grown in Scotland. After the botanicals are vapor distilled with the base spirit in "Elizabeth", the distillery's copper pot still, the gin is then bottled at 41.

Tasting Notes

"The intensity of the aroma is medium-low with orange, pine, and berry notes along with spicy cardamom. The gin is soft on the palate with more of the same on the taste. The ingredients used here are lovely together and while the juniper is present, it doesn't take charge. If you're after a classic London Dry style, look elsewhere, but if you are looking for something off the beaten path, Rock Rose Gin has you covered."
