Description
This Gin is proofed with the purest Essex water, but still retains a slight seaweed green hue.
This is such a specialist gin and works well with just a plain tonic and garnished with a slice of lemon and a sprig of rosemary. The gin particularly compliments any seafood and can we recommend boozy fresh oysters drizzled with this neat gin.
Pigs Bay gins are painstakingly gravity filtered using charcoal and then coconut to give the spirit a malt-like palate.
The gin has been requested by local chefs who wish to experiment with new menu items.

Lovely clean taste with a subtle salty tang.

It tastes like a bad mussel smell. My wife a seasoned gin drinker and mussel eater cannot drink it and is disappointed.

This is a divisive gin and at tasting events about 1 in 100 people will dislike it. It has a distinct seafood flavour and smell. Someone recently said it reminded them of walking out on Leigh Shore after the tide had gone out and smelling the seaweed and cockles. Fortunately about 10% of people at tasting events rate this as the best gin that they have ever tasted and it has been given critical acclaim by professional taste testers, as well as local bars and restaurants. So it has more lovers than haters. We always advise any prospective buyer to purchase a taster pack first to sample this gin.
