GIN NO.18 - BLUE SPRUCE, CARDAMOM & LEMON PEEL

50CL | LONDON DRY GIN | 40% ABV | £35

Inspired by a spark of curiosity one festive season, this gin began when founder Martin wondered how to give new life to his Christmas tree. With firewood ruled out (thanks to all that sticky pine sap), he reached for the wood chipper and asked — what if I distilled blue spruce  hippings, what flavours will I get?  The result, a bold, refreshing gin that captures the clean, invigorating character of fresh evergreen, but with year-round appeal.

Distilled with juniper, blue spruce chippings,, lemon peel, and a touch of cardamom, Gin No.18 delivers a pine-forward profile balanced by bright citrus and subtle spice warmth. It’s complex, crisp, and deeply aromatic — a sensory nod to forest air and open skies, whether you’re enjoying it fireside or alfresco.

Presented in a beautiful blue tin that echoes the clarity and brightness of the gin inside, it makes a distinctive gift or a striking addition to your own shelf.

TASTING NOTES:

The nose of this gin is filled with the invigorating pine aroma of the blue spruce, complemented by the bright freshness of lemon peel. On the palate, juniper takes the lead, with the pine providing depth and complexity, while cardamom and lemon give the gin a crisp, refreshing finish. It’s a balanced and aromatic gin, evoking the tranquillity and beauty of a winter walk through nature.

SERVING SUGGESTION:

For a refined serve, try a Spruce Gin Gimlet with a twist: In a cocktail shaker, combine 50ml of Gin No.18, 25ml fresh lime juice, 15ml lime cordial, and a dash of cranberry or pomegranate juice. Shake well with ice and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a lime wedge, a touch of edible gold glitter for a festive sparkle, or a sprig of rosemary for an added herbal note. The dash of cranberry or pomegranate juice adds a subtle sweetness and vibrant colour, making this crisp, pine-forward cocktail perfect for winter gatherings.
