The Gardener Organic Gin

The Gardener Gin is a premium London Dry style gin inspired by the French Riviera, a collaboration between Brad Pitt, master distiller Tom Nichol (formerly of Tanqueray), and the Perrin family, renowned winemakers from the Rhône Valley. This organic certified gin is distilled in France from a wheat base spirit in copper stills. The botanicals are carefully selected to evoke the essence of the region, including juniper, licorice, angelica, coriander, fresh pink grapefruit, lemon, and sweet and bitter oranges grown in the Cap d'Antibes area. The aim is to create a spirit that is both elegant and a true reflection of its Mediterranean inspiration.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The aroma presents a pleasant juniper note with a well-balanced background of citruses, often described with hints of blackcurrant and mint. Some detect a classic and bold green juniper with a slight cooling, menthol-kissed facet.
• Palate: The mouth texture is described as sublime and smooth. The palate offers a straight and harmonious balance between the juniper and the prominent citrus notes that tend to come forward. Some note a creamy juniper at the fore, backed by lemon zest and bitter orange, with mild fruity blackcurrant and licorice undertones, along with coriander and peppery spice. Others highlight a rich herbal impression with savory notes, particularly oregano.
• Finish: The finish is smooth and beautifully long-lasting. Some describe a warming menthol sensation that fades gently alongside accents of juniper, bitter orange, and mint. Others note a smooth and soft finish with lingering savory herbs and earthy licorice.

Awards:

• Silver Medal at the Bartender Spirits Awards.
• Silver Medal at the London Spirits Competition.
• Gold Medal at the World Gin Awards 2024.

Overall Impression: The Gardener Gin is a sophisticated and organic London Dry Gin that successfully captures the spirit of the French Riviera. Its well-balanced profile, where classic juniper intertwines with bright and zesty citrus notes, along with subtle herbal and spice undertones, makes it a versatile spirit. It is recommended for classic serves like a Gin & Tonic (especially with a premium Indian tonic and orange peel & rosemary garnish), Dry Martini, and Negroni, where its elegance and purity of flavor can truly shine. While some reviews suggest the herbal notes might be more dominant on the palate than the advertised citrus, it is generally well-regarded for its smooth texture and lasting finish, making it a memorable and unique gin in a crowded market.
