About this deal

Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA. It works only in coordination with the primary cookie. The Lakes Gin uses 9 botanicals in their reformulated recipe. These are juniper, coriander, angelica, orris root, cassia bark, liquorice, bitter orange, sweet orange and lemon peel. The Lakes Gin is created by Dhavall Gandhi, who is also the master blender for their whisky. The nine botanicals are macerated (steeped) in warm wheat spirit overnight, allowing the essential oils to be delicately released. The next day distillation takes place at a slow pace using a traditional copper pot still called Chemmy.

This is quite a deviation on the original recipe which contained botanicals such as bilberry, heather, hawthorn and mint, many of them foraged from the local area. From a brand perspective, I’d perhaps have liked to have seen The Lakes keep some of these foraged ingredients in the new recipe and retain that connection of provenance. Distillation

Story.

Using fresh water from the river Derwent and classic botanicals native to the Cumbrian fells like juniper, bilberry, heather, and meadowsweet, The Lakes gin is an authentic, locally made spirit. Their rhubarb and rosehip gin has been a particularly popular release, as well as delectable flavours like elderflower and pink grapefruit (the latter of which received a Gold Outstanding award at the 2022 International Wine and Spirit competition).
