Product description
Whitley Neill Gin, a creation of Johnny Neill, debuted in 2005 in the Halewood Wine & Spirits portfolio.
Neill is an eighth-generation distiller from the famous Greenall Whitley family, and claims that his English-made gin is inspired by Africa. He credits his African-born wife for the inspiration, who encouraged him to experiment with African botanicals. But Whitley Neill also has an incredibly wide range of flavoured gins (more than 10) and a traditional London Dry Gin. The Distiller's Cut, presented here, is a classic in the London Dry category, featuring juniper berries, coriander seed, angelica root, licorice root and dried orange peel. Whitley Neill Distiller's Cut has won several major awards, including a double gold medal at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. (Official tasting notes.)
The aroma is mild and balanced. Strong notes of juniper balanced by the subtle bitterness of candied orange peel and mild floral tones. On the palate, intense candied orange flavor, a pinch of white pepper and strong notes of juniper. In the finish, a combination of juniper and orange and delicate notes of forest floor.
We recommend serving it with Fentimans Connoisseurs tonic with a slice of orange.
