Edinburgh Gin Lemon & Jasmine

Lemon & Jasmine is Edinburgh Gin's bright, floral summer expression — a full-strength gin built around two aromatics that belong together: the zest of fresh lemon and the heady, tea-like perfume of jasmine flower. Distilled in small-batch copper stills in Edinburgh's Old Town, it starts from the classic Edinburgh Gin — a juniper-led Scottish dry gin with citrus and a whisper of Highland heather — and layers in lemon peel and jasmine blossom, bottled at 40% ABV. The idea is an Edinburgh garden in July: citrus trees in bloom and the scent of jasmine on a warm evening. Expect a vivid, fragrant nose of fresh lemon zest and sweet jasmine over piney juniper, opening into a palate where the lemon reads sharp and clean rather than candied, the jasmine adds a soft, floral, faintly green-tea lift, and the juniper and coriander of the base keep it firmly a gin, finishing crisp, floral, and refreshing. Honest note: this is a floral, citrus-forward flavored gin — those wanting a classic Scottish dry should reach for the Classic or Cannonball. For a summer bar it's one of the most useful bottles in the range: a G&T with a lemon wheel and a sprig of mint, a Lemon & Jasmine Collins, a French 75 that smells like a garden, or a Bee's Knees with honey. From the distillery beneath Edinburgh Castle that helped launch the Scottish gin boom.
