The HRAFN GIN ‘Winter’ 2020 Expression Story
As the long, cold nights begin to draw in, the team behind the now-legendary, multiple international award-winning HRAFN Gin have announced the return of a firm favourite: HRAFN GIN ‘Winter” – a very special edition Scottish Gin which launches in October 2020.
Meticulous distillates of Frankincense and Myrrh are added to the HRAFN Gin signature flavour – deep, long and smooth juniper with mandarin and spice to give you a gin with a beguiling shimmer of oriental florals and precious spiced woods.
HRAFN GIN ‘Winter’ is already a gold medal winner: awarded Gold at this year’s International Gin Masters competition in the Contemporary category. Why Contemporary? Well, ‘Winter’ is based on the signature ‘Thought & Memory’ gin with its deeper taste, long finish and silk smooth feel. But they then add in separate distillates of frankincense and myrrh, making this expression a Distilled Gin rather than classic London Dry. It’s all in the distillation process.
And as if this classic winter gin couldn’t get any better – there is NO PLASTIC in the packaging. So you can relax and enjoy this warm, spicy and mystical Scottish Gin sustainably.
