The Botanist is the first and only dry gin from Islay, Scotland. In addition to 9 core botanicals, there are 22 botanicals which are specific to the Islay region, all hand-picked. Latin names of these 22 botanicals are embossed on the bottle of The Botanist gin. With its 46% alcohol level, it is perfect especially for martinis, and this ABV level makes it also very versatile for cocktails. It is very balanced and smooth and that’s why I mosly enjoy it as G&T, however, this time I prepared an interesting mix.⁣
