Gin Orbium Hendrick's

What would Hendrick's gin look like if it came from a parallel universe? The answer lies in its Orbium variant which replaces the cucumber that characterizes gin with quinine, to trace an unknown and alternative dimension. The packaging does the rest: this special gin is in fact contained in a very curious, almost mysterious and fascinating blue pharmaceutical-style bottle.

The recipe, perfected by the master distiller Leslie Gracie in the distillation rooms of the Gin Palace, involves the addition of other unusual botanicals such as absinthe and blue lotus buds that provide an additional touch of class. A very complex gin is obtained, characterized by intriguing floral and bitter notes that anticipate a round, spherical sip - "orbium" derives from Latin and means precisely the circle - of infinite persistence.

It is a gin to be served straight after a meal, or to compose classic cocktails from which to obtain a renewed experience: ok then to Gin & Tonic, Martini and Negroni.
