Description
Copper in the Clouds Hertfordshire Dry Gin
Created in 'The Distillery at Dowsett's Farm', Copper in the Clouds gin is a small company creating premium gin's in Hertfordshire. Historically, Hertfordshire (a county just to the north of London) was the hunting ground of the British Royal family, and is still relatively rural with numerous forests.
They create their gins using locally sourced premium wheat spirit. Where possible, they use locally grown and sourced botanicals, and have even started growing some of their own botanicals on the farm in their recently created botanical garden.
This attention to detail ensures a quality, and unique range of gins which they can rightfully be proud of! Each of their bottles is a piece of art itself. With this gin, they capture an elegantly dressed stag (a Hart is an old name for a stag, and is why the county is named as it is).
With their Hertfordshire Dry gin, they have tried to create a gin which answered the question “What would our county taste like distilled?”. They have utilised distillery grown lemon balm and lemon vernena - which gives earthy, vegetal notes. Locally sourced Hertfordshire Lavender ensures an elegant floral note. There is also a touch of smoke and spice from black and green cardamom.
The result is a classic gin, with a delicate floral twist - totally unique to Hertfordshire!
Fun Fact: Emma was born and raised in Hertfordshire, and Gary grew up literally around the corner from the distillery - so it's great to have a 'home grown' gin in our range!

Perfect Serve
Delicious enjoyed in a classic G & T, and we particularly like this one with The Artisan Drinks Co. Classic London Tonic.
However, it also works particularly well in a Red Snapper Cocktail (the gin version of a Bloody Mary). Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add 60ml of the gin, 120ml of tomato juice, 15ml lemon juice, 7.5ml of sugar syrup, 4 dashes of Worcestershire Sauce, 7 drops of hot sauce, and a pinch of celery salt and black pepper. Shake well, and strain into a tall glass filled with fresh ice. Garnish with a stick of celery (keep the leaves on the top!)
