HYKE Gin 70cl – IWSC Gold Award Winning London Dry Gin, Sustainably made with Grape Spirit and Flavoured with Unique Botanicals

Product Information

The great thing about gin is it can be stored for years without going off, but it’s recommended to drink it within two years of opening. Even if you tightly reseal it, it’ll likely lose taste and quality if you leave it any longer. What are the different types of gin? TO USE: To use, place the cube in a small bowl and let the ice melt. Carefully drain the water and pat dry. Just chop some pear and rhubarb into small chunks and submerge in a jar with HYKE Gin. Keep tasting it as the days go by then strain and drink it whenever it’s at your desired 'fruitiness' level.

Fragrant and delicate with mellowing rooibos tea contributing to a very harmonious blend of botanicals” - 4.5* Excellent (Difford’s Guide) See it An easy way to cut food waste is to use the flesh from oranges, lemons and limes (once you’ve squeezed out the juice) to make a simple, versatile cordial (we love this simple recipe suggested by Farmdrop). This flavoursome drinks ingredient will keep in the fridge for up to a month. Zest the lemon and let that steep in HYKE Gin with some sprigs of lemon thyme. Go easy with herbs though you don’t want them to overpower the gin. Once again keep tasting it and once it is how you like it you can strain and enjoy.There are four different types of gin: London dry gin, old Tom, Plymouth and navy strength gin. Is gin gluten-free? Orange is also a great flavour as it’s so versatile and allowed us to do it in our own distinct way. There are lots of orange gins out there but each one is different due to orange being such a versatile fruit which pairs with lots of other ingredients. For a simple serve we love HYKE Orange with premium tonic and a slice of orange (what else!) looking for something a little more complex then try it in a Negroni or as a swap for HYKE Gin in our HYKE Martini which is a grown-up chocolatey indulgence made with Amontillado Sherry and Crème de Cacao blanc. You can read more about our approach, which earned us top honours at the Footprint Drinks Sustainability Awards in 2020, here. What are the best ways to enjoy HYKE Gin? The exhibition brings together the politics and the pleasure of food to ask how the collective choices we make can lead to a more sustainable, just and delicious food future.

Three signature serves to showcase HYKE’s versatility and distinct taste, have been developed by Jamie Jones, director of drinks at Scotch + Limon; HYKE G&T, HYKE Spritz and a HYKE Martini. This is a growing trend,” says James Oag-Cooper, managing director of Hyke Gin, which is made from discarded supermarket “table” grapes grown to be eaten fresh. Produced by Foxhole Spirit in Bolney, West Sussex, the HYKE Orange gin is one of their signature series. Foxhole launched in 2016 and they have already won a number of awards. They produce a variety of other gins as well as rum. The tipple uses the excess strawberry crop grown in Yorkshire. Hyke Gin is also using orange skins left over from supermarket fruit salads in its orange gin, while discarded cherries, spent coffee grounds and coconut all go into its Mad City Botanical Rum along with molasses; a natural byproduct made from processing sugar cane. HYKE Gin and HYKE Gin Very Special are part of our wider mission to make delicious, luxurious spirits using natural surplus materials generated by other businesses. As well as helping to cut waste-to-landfill from the winemaking and retail sectors, using surplus grapes reduces our reliance on specially-grown, single-purpose materials, which require land, energy and other resources to produce.

We know there are many more Sussex gins to try as the craft gin industry continues to go from strength to strength, and we’re committed to sipping our way through as many as we can – all in the name of research, of course! Mix the gin, liqueur and lemon juice in a shaker with ice. Pour into a glass and top with soda water. Garnish with a lemon wedge, if desired. HYKE, a new, premium gin made in England using grape spirit produced from surplus fresh table grapes, is set to launch on Monday 18th March , Global Recycling Day. HYKE ingeniously re-invents the equivalent of 1.4 million punnets* of internationally sourced grapes per year, that are surplus to the requirements of the supply chain, as a luxury, handcrafted spirit.
