The Lakes Classic Gin, 70clThe Lakes Classic Gin from The Lakes Distillery is made with botanicals including juniper, black pepper and orange peel. Orris root, cassia bark and liquorice offer complementary flavours with lemon peel also enhancing the citrus notes. The botanicals are steeped overnight in the base British wheat spirit slowly releasing the delicate essential oils. The traditional copper pot still then runs slow and long to extract the maximum amount of flavour.
