Uisge Lusach The Gaelic Gins - Dry
The Gaelic Gins are produced in a converted whisky still acquired by founder, Sir Ian Noble. The still was rumoured to have once been used to produce illicit spirits. A botanical infusing basket was recently added halfway along the copper lyne arm making this a perfect vessel for the company’s artisanal single-batch gins. First produced in 2017, this dry gin is infused with a wide range of botanicals including juniper, coriander, angelica, cassia bark, cardamom, and lemon peel. The nose features classic notes of juniper and fresh herbal nuances, with an underlying lemony fresh fragrance. The palate is smooth and supple with a linear structure and dry finish. A great gin for traditionalists; the ideal base for a gin and tonic on the rocks.– JB
Uisge Lusach The Gaelic Gins - Sweet
In the 19th century, Juniper grew so abundantly across the highlands that a robust trade existed of Scottish juniper berries to Dutch gin producers. Over time, these hardwood habitats were depleted, and the juniper began to disappear. Sir Ian Noble has always been a passionate conservationist. His work to restore native woodlands included widespread juniper plantings: the result has been a slow but steady resurgence of juniper, and The Gaelic Gins are a tribute to Sir Ian’s dedication. This sweet gin is a new addition to the line up. It was first produced in 2021, after a succession of test batches to obtain the perfect balance of freshness, florality, and subtle sweetness. The main botanicals include juniper, coriander, cassia bark, hazelnuts, orange peel, orris root, honey and thyme.–JB
Uisge Lusach The Gaelic Gins - Spiced
The Gaelic Gins from Pràban na Linne are distilled using the Isle of Skye’s soft water, the same key ingredient that makes the producer’s Scotch Whiskies so distinctive. The labels bear the words Uisge Lusach in a bold cursive script. Uisge is the Gaelic term for water and lusach refers to an abundance of herbs. This is indeed a fitting name for these artisanal, single-batch gins produced with a diverse array of botanicals. The spiced gin was added to the range in 2019; its vibrant, warming flavours are derived from an infusion of juniper, cassia bark, orange peel, allspice, mace, liquorice root, sage, and almond. The result is very harmonious with each spice, botanical and fruit element knitting together to make a smooth, pleasing whole.– JB
