Tasting notes by the distiller

The nose

A delicate bouquet of rose, mixed with deeper cardamom and a touch of citrus.

The palate

Fruity berries merge with a floral nose to give a full-bodied, rounded gin. Bright notes ping as the juniper comes forward.

The finish

The sharpness of the sea buckthorn emerges, but once again is rounded off by berries and a juniper heart.

Rock Rose Gin gets its wonderful flavour from a carefully selected and put together the creation of local and traditional botanicals. Each one is meticulously chosen for its flavour properties to create the perfect taste.

After fifty-five experiments by Martin & Claire, the final recipe was chosen to give a wee taste of Caithness and the very first batch was distilled on the 17th August 2014.

OUR PROCESS

Our precious botanicals are carefully harvested and stored before our bespoke copper pot stills, ‘Elizabeth’ and ‘Margaret’, made by John Dore & Co. Ltd, the oldest still maker in the world, work their magic. Our two ‘girls’ have been uniquely designed just to create our spirits using a traditional handmade copper head along with a botanical vapour basket, ours is a small batch process of 500 litres.
