Everything we all love about Hendrick’s Gin with highland summer florals.
Hendrick’s Gin was launched by William Grant & Sons in 1999. It’s produced at their Girvan Distillery in South Ayrshire, Scotland — built in 1963. Somewhat famously, the distillery was built in a hurry due to a quarrel between William Grant & Sons and a supplier — Distillers Company Limited (DCL). From ground break to production was a short nine months. They produce several Single Malt and blended Whiskies there, in addition to Hendrick’s Gins.
We love getting in on the ground floor with a new Spirit — especially when it’s one of this quality. Hendrick’s Midsummer Solstice was launched in the UK in March of 2019, and it’s arriving in the US for the first time… right now. TaDa!
Hendrick’s says that their new Midsummer Solstice Gin was inspired by the mysterious and ephemeral delights of floral blooms during the summer solstice. As far as we’re concerned, the most important thing is that they haven’t lost the core of why we love Hendrick’s Gin — the exceptional quality and flavor profile is there. But they’ve infused an additional “secret” selection of florals, adding complex aromatics and light sweetness that really brings something new.
