JUNIPER BERRIES
If there are no Juniper Berries it’s not gin. Their essential oils provide an aroma of pine and a hint of bitterness on the palate.
CORIANDER SEED
Provides a balance to the gin with its citrus aromas, hint of sour and spice.
ORANGE PEELS
An eating orange from Spain brings a delicate sweetness to the gin’s aromatics.
LEMON PEELS
Adds a background note of fresh citrus.
ANGELICA ROOT
Brings the distinctive dry finish that English gins are deservedly famous for, along with a complex sweetness.
GREEN CARDAMOM
The highest percentage of essential oils out of any of our botanicals, it also adds a hint of menthol to the gin.
ORRIS ROOT
Along with a hint of violet, this natural preservative ensure every bottle we make retains its full flavour and aroma.
THE AWARDS
Tasting notes

The Refectory Bar (2004-Present day). Inspired by recipes of the Savoy Cocktail Book this recipe has been the house Martini of the bar since it was launched back in 2004.

One For Kash
A desert lover’s Martini. Take a small spoonful of the ‘cheesecake’ to coat the palate then take a sip of the Martini, allowing it to wash across your palate and combine with rich creaminess. Not only does this produce a delicious combination but also cleans the palate ready to repeat the tasty process.

Plymouth Gin
N.G.B. Martini
A California inspired smoky martini. A fifty-fifty recipe using this nutty, dried fruit, sherry based sweet vermouth, then given a hint of smoke by way of a splash of mezcal. This combination is lifted with a double citrus twist then finished with a sliced dried apricot that imparts a hint of fruit into the drink and is even more delicious to eat at the end once it has sat and soaked into the drink.

Plymouth Gin
Your Dailey Gimlet
A simple, elderflower variation on the classic Gimlet. A pinch of salt helps the flavours ‘pop’ on the palate. Make the cordial separately, bottle and leave in the fridge for when the time is right to make one of these tasty little drinks! The name references the fact that lime cordial was taken every day to prevent scurvy and it is also the surname of Harriet, the manager of the Refectory Bar in the home of Plymouth Gin.
