Glasgow Gin – Pure Gallus (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 43.3% Country: Scotland
Because Glasgow has always been close to our hearts, we wanted range a gin that celebrated both the unique city. Something fun, something playful, something Glasgow. Such a distinctive gin needed equally distinctive branding – and what better than Glasgow’s iconic and instantly recognisable Duke of Wellington statue? The image of the Duke, his steed and the jauntily balanced cone has become known the world over; a byword for a city alive with irreverence, humour and playfulness – just like the gin that now bears its name.
Pure Gallus – A Scottish term for ‘Simply Brilliant’
Glasgow Gin is distilled to our their special recipe in Tradeston in the heart of Glasgow. Using Juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root, lemon and orange peel, cassia and cinnamon bark, ground nutmeg, orris root and elderflowers. It’s a proud tribute to the people who inspired it, with every delicious drop capturing the true spirit of the city. Serve with tonic in a tall glass over ice, garnished with a slice of pear or twist of lime.
