Boxer Gin is a classic London Dry Gin with a flavour profile of juniper, citrus and spice. Boxer is the world's first 'Fresh Botanical Gin', delivering a classic London Dry style flavour but with a new vibrancy and complexity. The first step in the preparation of Boxer Gin is the careful distillation of a soft, pure wheat spirit. They use the highest quality grain from the east of England. This grain is fermented and distilled using a combination of a modern tower still and a traditional copper pot still. The result is a gentle, soft spirit with a natural grain sweetness and subtle flavours of grass and hay. They steep the carefully sourced botanicals in the copper distilled wheat spirit, to allow the flavours to be released. After eight hours of maceration they transfer the mix into 'Angela' - an 108 year old copper pot still - which is gently heated until the spirit is turned into vapour and then condensed back into a liquid. This process fixes the botanical flavours into Boxer gin. In order to deliver an added vibrancy to Boxer Gin they have created a new production process. They separately steam distil fresh, wild juniper berries to extract their essential oil. This gentle 20 hour process is carried out at source in the Himalaya Mountains, capturing each & every delicate nuance of flavour with absolute clarity. Similarly, they also extract zingy raw citrus essential oil by cold pressing fresh bergamot peel. |
