Peddlers Gin Co. 750ml

Peddlers Gin Co. Shanghai Craft Gin is the world’s first Chinese craft gin. Its secret is a carefully curated fusion of botanicals and ideas from the West and the Far East and inspired by the Shanghai underground. A diverse community of creators and artists, merchants and musicians, who push the boundaries of their craft.

Three kiwis spent three years with a master distiller, testing, perfecting and drinking. And set out on the task of making a gin as exotic as Shanghai itself.  Double distilled and vapor infused in a copper alembic still, each organic ingredient is captured at its purest and freshest form. A time-worthy process, a gold medal winning recipe, eleven botanicals foraged and fused. Peddlers Gin Co. Shanghai Craft Gin is meticulously crafted in small batches to ensure quality and flavour are never compromised. The organic botanicals are foraged from exotic locations such as Sichuan, Yunnan, Xinjiang and Gansu. The ingredients tell a story of the beauty and diversity of China and its unique natural flora.

Nose: Powerful earthy notes, supported by aromatic east Asian mint and strongly scented Buddha’s Hand. A faint floral ending of Sichuan pepper.

Palate: Resinous juniper immediately on the tongue, with earthy flavours of angelica, cinnamon and liquorice. This is followed by citrus and pepper notes filling the mouth. Mellowing into warmer honey tastes of coriander seeds and Xinjiang almonds.

Finish: Gentle oils from juniper, coriander and almonds eventually give way to a pleasant, lingering warm mouthfeel from mala spice and cubeb berries, leaving you awaiting the next sip.
