New Hendrick’s Gin expression released

Hendrick’s Gin are releasing a new expression –Midsummer Solstice– which they say has been inspired by the “mysterious and ephemeral delights” of floral blooms during the summer solstice.

Hendrick’s master distiller, Lesley Gracie’s has created the expression from her “Cabinet of Curiosities, a place of experimental botanic alchemy” at the gin’s £13m Scottish Gin Palace.

Midsummer Solstice is bottled in the familiar Hendrick’s house style, but it’s infused with floral essences and flavours that capture the “aromatic intensity of a midsummer day”.

Gracie said: “I have always been enamoured by the power of nature’s flavours and aromas at the peak of summer and for this new expression I’ve hand-selected each floral essence to capture this intensity.

Midsummer Solstice will launch in the UK in March and is bottled at 43.4% ABV. We’ll be keeping an eye out for some fantastic promotions from Hendricks to mark the launch.,
