  • Silver, International Wine & Spirit Competition, 2015

Warner Edwards is leading the field among craft gin distillers and their rhubarb version is both divine and quirky. Presented here in a tin box, it’s even more difficult to resist. Fresh, yet spicy with a definite hint of rhubarb and pretty pink hue.

This is a wonderful, spicy English gin with a robust rhubarb taste. It is made by ‘Curiosity’, an Arnold Holstein still that forms the beating heart of the operation (it’s a tradition of artisan craftsmen in the business to give their still a name). The all important rhubarb was originally grown in the kitchen gardens of Buckingham Palace during the reign of Queen Victoria, and has since had quite a journey. Half was sent to the Vice Regal Lodge in Dublin and it has now made its way back to Crown Estate land in Lincolnshire. The rhubarb is squeezed through a cider press. Sugar is added and it is blended with the 89% ABV Harrington Dry Gin to bring it to 40%. The pink, square bottle makes this gin’s appearance as distinctive as its taste.
