The Botanist Islay Dry Gin (46%)

The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is a truly artisanal spirit, distilled and hand-crafted on the remote Scottish island of Islay. Created at the renowned Bruichladdich Distillery, this gin is a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, capturing the wild essence of its origin.

Crafted with 22 hand-foraged local botanicals—including wild thyme, meadowsweet, and bog myrtle—alongside 9 classic gin botanicals, The Botanist offers a rich, complex flavor profile. The result is a gin of layered depth: floral and herbaceous on the nose, crisp and citrusy on the palate, with a cool, minty finish.

Slow-distilled in a rare Lomond pot still affectionately known as “Ugly Betty,” this gin is a celebration of Islay’s untamed beauty and botanical diversity.

Perfect for a classic gin and tonic, yet nuanced enough for sipping neat or mixing into refined cocktails, The Botanist is a gin for the curious—and a true expression of place, passion, and craft.
